EPA-1X100GE Cisco ASR1000 1x100GE Ethernet Port Adapter
Cisco EPA-1X100GE: 1-Port 100GE Ethernet Adapter for ASR1000
Great Network Performance for High-Bandwidth Applications with Cisco EPA-1X100GE Adapter
The EPAs are new interface cards that introduce 40 Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to the Cisco ASR 1000 Series. Like the fixed Ethernet line cards, the modular interface processor with EPAs offers the same feature parity and functionality as the SPA interface processor and SPA combination
