EPA-10X10GE Cisco ASR1000 10x10GE Ethernet Port Adapter
Cisco EPA-1X40GE: Single-Port 40GE Ethernet Adapter for ASR1000
Seamless 40GE Connectivity with Cisco EPA-1X40GE Adapter for Advanced Networking
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
