Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary function of the Cisco A9K-36X10GE-TR line card? +
The A9K-36X10GE-TR is a high-density, 36-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet line card designed for the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers. It provides massive throughput and scalability for service provider edge and enterprise core networks, enabling efficient high-speed data transmission and traffic aggregation in bandwidth-intensive environments.
Which chassis are compatible with the A9K-36X10GE-TR line card? +
This line card is specifically engineered for deployment within the Cisco ASR 9000 Series modular chassis family, including the ASR 9006, 9010, 9904, 9910, 9912, and 9922. It utilizes the common modular architecture of these routers to ensure seamless integration and consistent performance across your existing ASR 9000 infrastructure.
What does the 'TR' designation indicate for this line card model? +
The 'TR' suffix stands for 'Transport' optimized. In the context of Cisco ASR 9000 line cards, this indicates that the module is designed for applications where standard packet forwarding performance is prioritized over the deep-buffer requirements typically found in 'SE' (Service Edge) line cards. It is an excellent choice for core and aggregation scenarios requiring high-density 10GE connectivity.
How does the A9K-36X10GE-TR handle high-volume data traffic? +
This line card delivers exceptional performance through its advanced ASIC architecture, supporting line-rate throughput across all 36 ports. By leveraging the distributed processing power of the ASR 9000 chassis, it ensures deterministic performance for complex routing tables and high-bandwidth applications, minimizing latency while maintaining reliable packet delivery at scale.
What type of optics are required for the 10GE ports on this card? +
The 36 ports on this line card utilize SFP+ (Small Form-factor Pluggable) transceivers. This flexibility allows network architects to select the appropriate optics—such as SR, LR, ER, or ZR—based on the specific distance and fiber medium requirements of the network link, ensuring broad compatibility with existing fiber plant installations.
Does this line card support hardware-based features like QoS? +
Yes, the A9K-36X10GE-TR supports sophisticated Quality of Service (QoS) features implemented directly in the hardware. This allows for granular traffic shaping, policing, and prioritization of sensitive data flows. These capabilities are essential for maintaining Service Level Agreements in multi-tenant environments or converged networks carrying voice, video, and mission-critical traffic.
How is the A9K-36X10GE-TR managed within an ASR 9000 environment? +
Management is handled through the Cisco IOS XR operating system, which provides a modular, distributed software architecture. You can configure and monitor this line card using standard CLI, SNMP, or NETCONF interfaces. The system provides comprehensive real-time telemetry and diagnostic tools, facilitating rapid troubleshooting and simplified operational control over the card's diverse feature set.
Are there specific power or cooling requirements for this line card? +
Because this module provides 36 high-speed ports, it has specific power draw requirements that must be accounted for within your chassis configuration. Ensure that your ASR 9000 chassis is equipped with sufficient power supply units and fan trays to support the added load. Always check the system's power budget calculation tools before deployment to guarantee optimal operational stability.
