A99-RP2-TR Overview
The Cisco A99-RP2-TR is Cisco’s latest generation route processor optimized for packet transport applications. It provides high performance routing capabilities for the Cisco ASR 9912 and ASR 9922 chassis, enabling scalable 100GbE densities required for today’s high bandwidth networks.
With 16GB of ECC memory and support for Cisco IOS XR software, the Cisco A99-RP2-TR delivers carrier-class availability, flexibility, and investment protection. The distributed forwarding architecture ensures line-rate performance across all ports, while the modular software allows independent operation of routing protocols and services.
Designed for wireline, data center interconnect, and radio access network aggregation use cases, the A99-RP2-TR brings robust timing, synchronization, and fast convergence to the packet edge. The advanced fabric architecture and timing capabilities make it suitable for video, cloud, and mobile services.
