Cisco ASR1002-X Aggregation Services Router | 5Gbps to 36Gbps Scalable

The Cisco ASR1002-X Aggregation Services Router is a high-performance WAN edge and aggregation platform designed for enterprises, cloud providers, telecom operators, and large-scale data center networks. Built on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series architecture, the ASR1002-X delivers carrier-grade routing, security, VPN services, and application-aware networking in a compact 2RU form factor.

Equipped with 6 integrated Gigabit Ethernet SFP ports and 3 SPA slots, the ASR1002-X provides flexible connectivity options while supporting scalable throughput from 5 Gbps up to 36 Gbps through software licensing—allowing businesses to expand network capacity without replacing hardware.

Ideal for WAN aggregation, Internet edge deployments, managed services, and secure branch connectivity, the ASR1002-X combines performance, reliability, and investment protection for modern enterprise networks.

• Default throughput: 5 Gbps
• Upgradeable to 10 Gbps, 20 Gbps, or 36 Gbps via software licenses
• Supports large-scale routing tables and BGP deployments

• 6 × Integrated Gigabit Ethernet SFP Ports
• 3 × Shared Port Adapter (SPA) Slots
• Support for multiple WAN and service interfaces

• Hardware-based encryption
• Up to 4 Gbps crypto throughput
• VPN, IPsec, and secure WAN services

• Integrated Route Processor (RP)
• Embedded Services Processor (ESP)
• Shared memory architecture

• Redundant power supply support
• Software redundancy capabilities
• Carrier-grade reliability for mission-critical networks

Unlike traditional routers that require hardware replacement for bandwidth upgrades, the ASR1002-X allows performance expansion through software licensing, reducing capital expenditure.

Designed for telecom and enterprise environments, the router supports continuous operation, high availability, and mission-critical WAN services.

As business traffic increases, bandwidth can be upgraded from 5 Gbps to 36 Gbps without replacing the chassis.

Integrated encryption and advanced security features help protect data across distributed networks.
