XR 12000 Series Routers

The Cisco XR 12000 Series Routers are premier routing platforms designed to build scalable, secure, and service-rich IP/MPLS networks. Leveraging the modular Cisco IOS XR software, the series provides true carrier-class reliability and high-speed performance, ranging from 2.5 Gbps to 10 Gbps per slot.

The XR 12000 series is engineered to consolidate core and edge functions, supporting everything from optical private line aggregation (OC-48 to DS0) to complex ATM/Frame Relay transport services. With a total switching capacity reaching 1.28 Tbps, it handles massive data loads across various interfaces, including STM-1 to STM-64 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Its upgradable switch fabric and modular design ensure a low total cost of ownership (TCO) and long-term investment protection for service providers and large enterprises.

Key Specifications:

• Capacity: Scalable throughput from 30 Gbps to 1280 Gbps.

• Interface Density: Supports up to 150 Gigabit Ethernet or 15 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports.

• Software: Powered by Cisco IOS XR for high availability and service separation.

• Versatility: Ideal for IP/MPLS core, regional backbones, and Internet Exchange points.

• Redundancy: Modular switch fabric and carrier-grade power systems.
