ASR1000-SIP40 Cisco ASR1000 SPA Interface Processor 40
Cisco ASR1000-SIP40 ASR 1000 SPA Interface Processor 40
High-Performance Cisco SIP40 Interface Processor with 40Gbps Throughput for ASR 1000 Series
The Cisco ASR1000-SIP40 SPA Interface Processor is a high-performance modular interface expansion module designed for Cisco ASR 1000 Series routers. Built for enterprise and carrier-grade networking environments, it enables scalable connectivity and flexible deployment of WAN, Ethernet, and legacy interfaces through support for Shared Port Adapters (SPAs).
Supporting up to 4 SPA modules, the ASR1000-SIP40 provides a versatile platform for expanding network interfaces across a wide range of applications, including Ethernet, POS, ATM, and multiservice WAN connectivity. Its modular design allows organizations to adapt infrastructure efficiently while reducing deployment costs and simplifying network upgrades.
With throughput capabilities of up to 40 Gbps, the module delivers high-speed packet forwarding and carrier-grade performance for demanding enterprise and service provider networks. Built on Cisco’s Modular I-Flex architecture, it supports advanced networking features including QoS, ACLs, MPLS, IPv6, traffic shaping, and policy enforcement for optimized service delivery.
The ASR1000-SIP40 integrates seamlessly with Cisco ASR1002, ASR1004, ASR1006, and ASR1013 routers, operating on Cisco IOS XE for advanced automation, programmability, and centralized network management.
Designed for high availability, the module supports Online Insertion and Removal (OIR), enabling hot-swappable maintenance and upgrades without interrupting network operations.
Ideal for service provider WAN aggregation, enterprise edge routing, multiservice networking, and migration from legacy WAN infrastructures to modern Ethernet environments, the Cisco ASR1000-SIP40 delivers scalable performance, flexible connectivity, and enterprise-grade reliability for modern networking deployments.
