Cisco ASR 1001-X Router Overview
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers are mid-range edge routers that establish a
new price-to-performance class offering benefits to both enterprise and service providers alike. The
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers portfolio is based on an innovative custom-built
ASIC called Quantum Flow Processor that aggregates services at scale.
The Cisco ASR 1001-X Router is a part of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series and offers a compact form factor
that consumes less rack space and power while offering 20 Gbps forwarding throughput. The Cisco ASR
1001-X Router supports all the general-purpose routing and security features of the Cisco ASR 1000
Series Aggregation Services Routers.
Hardware Features of the Cisco ASR 1001-X Router
The Cisco ASR 1001-X Router supports:
• Up to 16 GB (8 GB in the base configuration) of DDR3 error-correcting code-protected field-
replaceable memory, with single-bit error correction and multi-bit error detection.
• A nonmodular and fixed Embedded Services Processor (ESP) with a default throughput of 2.5 Gbps
that is upgradable with a software-activated performance license of 5 Gbps, 10 Gbps, or 20 Gbps.
• Up to 8 Gbps security and crypto processing through a dedicated security processor.
• RJ-45 console ports and auxiliary ports, and a mini USB console port.
• One copper Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps network management port.
• An embedded USB (eUSB) flash module that supports 8 GB of nonvolatile Flash storage.
• Two USB 2.0 ports for USB flash sticks or USB secure tokens (secure key distribution).
• Stratum 3E network clocking per GR-1244-CORE, using 1588, 10 GE, GE, SPA, or Network
Interface Module (NIM) interfaces as timing sources.
• Six built-in 1 GE SFP-only interfaces (do not support SFP+), and two built-in 10 GE SFP+ interfaces
(support only 10-GE rate) that support SyncE.
• One half-height SPA bay.
• Software redundancy using Dual IOS, similar to all the other nonhardware redundant routers from
the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router family.
• LED indicators for Ethernet and console status, as well as visual system state indications.
• Command-line interface (CLI), alarm, network management, logging, statistics aggregation, and
on-board failure logging (OBFL).
