Overview

The Cisco ASR 9000 Series 5th Generation 400 Gigabit Ethernet Multi-Rate Line Card, model A9K-4HG-FLEX-FC, delivers industry-leading high density with line-rate 10, 25, 40, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet ports to any slot of a Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router. Designed to remove bandwidth bottlenecks caused by surging Video-on-Demand (VoD), IPTV, point-to-point video, internet video, and cloud services traffic, this multi-rate line card supports QSFP28, SFP28, QSFP+, and SFP+ optics, enabling customers to mix and match interface types on the same line card.

Multiple interface modes can be configured easily through the Command Line Interface (CLI) without resetting or restarting the line card. This line card and compatible ASR 9000 Series routers provide the fundamental infrastructure for scalable Carrier Ethernet and IP/Multiprotocol Label Switching (IP/MPLS) networks, supporting profitable business, residential, and mobile services.

Line Card Variants

The service-edge-optimized variant is designed for deployments requiring enhanced service scale, while the packet-transport-optimized variant supports basic service scale. This power-optimized line card supports full line rate, non-oversubscribed Ethernet traffic and a 10 Gigabit Ethernet Satellite Network Virtualization (nV) System mode on the ASR 9000 Series Router.

Features and Benefits

The line card is fully compatible with Cisco ASR 9922 Router, ASR 9912 Router, ASR 9910 Router, ASR 9906 Router, ASR 9904 Router, ASR 9010 Router, and ASR 9006 Router, though chassis may require hardware updates for fabric cards, RP/RSP cards, and cooling systems.

Cisco Pluggable Interfaces

Supports mixing and matching of 10, 25, 40, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet interface types across a single line card using QSFP28 for 40/100GbE, SFP28 for 10/25GbE, and SFP+ for 10GbE.

Product Specifications Highlights

Physical dimensions for both Service Edge and Packet Transport variants: 1.68 x 15.87 x 24.00 in. (42.67 x 403.10 x 609.60 mm); weight 18.74 lb (8.50 kg).

Environmental conditions: Operating temperature 41 to 104°F (5 to 40°C) with limitations for high-power optics; operating humidity 10 to 85%; storage temperature –40 to 158°F (–40 to 70°C); storage humidity 5 to 95% (not to exceed 0.024 kg of water per kg of dry air); operating altitude –60 to 4000 m.

Regulatory Compliance

The Cisco ASR 9000 Series meets stringent ETSI/EN, EMC, Immunity, Safety, and NEBS standards, ensuring reliability in demanding carrier environments.

Commercial Models

Available via Flexible Consumption Model (FCM) for pay-as-you-grow with software subscriptions, or Traditional Business Model. Feature licenses enable advanced capabilities like VRF, CGv6, and MACSec.
