Features and benefits

Feature	Benefit
Support for TDM and SONET/SDH Migration to Modernized Packet-Based Optical Metro Network	Provides cost-effective delivery of Circuit Emulation (CEM) and Carrier Ethernet (CE) capabilities over a redundant and protected packet-based network (MPLS/FlexLSP).
Metro Carrier Ethernet Aggregation	Enables the service flexibility and delivery of Layer 2, Layer 3, IP, and MPLS transport for advanced L2VPN, L3VPN, and Multicast services.
Industry leading, carrier-class circuit emulation (CEM) technology	Delivers any-to-any connectivity via a packet-based network (MPLS/Flex LSP) using TDM, PDH, SONET/SDH, and Carrier Ethernet (FE, GE, and 10GE) interfaces.
Next generation access network with fully distributed and unique packet capabilities	Supports state-of-the-art Pseudowire Emulation Edge-to-Edge (PWE3), Hierarchical Quality of Service (H-QoS), and next generation IP/MPLS. Cisco’s MPLS FlexLSP guarantees resiliency (sub 50 ms switchover time), fault propagation, connectivity verification, statistical multiplexing and scalability, with RSVP-TE extensions as the control plane for bi-directional tunnel (LSP) setup and programmability for SDN functionality support.
Operation Efficiency with End-to-End Network Management	Supported by the Evolved Programmable Network Manager (EPN-M), which enables business agility and operational efficiencies through automated device operations, fast provisioning and proactive assurance.
Comprehensive variety of interfaces and protocols	Ethernet interfaces are available in copper and fiber, with speeds ranging from 10 Mbps to 100 Gbps. Legacy interfaces are available in speeds ranging from nxDS0 to OC-192/STM-64 for Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH), Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH), and Synchronous Optical Network (SONET). Optical Transport Network (OTN) wrapping functionalities are also supported.

Ethernet interface modules

Cisco ASR 900 Series Ethernet interface modules are designed to give customers a high degree of flexibility and value. All Ethernet interface modules share a common core that supports time stamping on the module for Y.1731 Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) delay measurement functions to achieve precise results for one-way and two-way delay measurement. The modules also provide time-stamping functions for the IEEE 1588-2008 protocol. These time stamps help ensure that ASR 900 Series systems achieve outstanding results when deploying IEEE 1588-2008 protocols for frequency and phase synchronization. Not all customers will deploy IEEE 1588-2008 for synchronization. Therefore, the Ethernet interface modules also support input and output frequency synchronization using Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE).

All ASR 900 Series Ethernet interface modules support Online Insertion and Removal (OIR), which contributes to a higher uptime for ASR 900 Series systems.

TDM/PDH/SONET/SDH Interface Modules

Migrating circuit-switched TDM, PDH and SONET/SDH networks to Ethernet/IP/MPLS capable switches and routers can be challenging, particularly when service providers need to replicate the functionalities and provisioning capabilities of the legacy infrastructure. Although the legacy TDM infrastructure is aging, expensive to operate, and an inefficient platform for data transport, service providers and carriers are still required to maintain their TDM connectivity. End customers are sometimes reluctant to move to native Ethernet/IP/MPLS handoffs and might switch to a different service provider if forced to transition early.

The ASR 900 Series products provide a purpose-built solution that enables service providers to meet their legacy TDM requirements. With high-density TDM, SONET/SDH, OTN and Carrier Ethernet (FE, GE, 10GE, 40GE and 100GE) interfaces, the ASR 900 series delivers any-to-any connectivity via a packet-based network (MPLS/Flex LSP), more efficiently than any other packet transport mechanism and is not bounded by TDM transport inefficiencies. The ASR 900 series features include:

● Cisco’s high-density Circuit Emulation technology which provides boundless scale with High density TDM circuit emulation over a protected Flex LSP core

● A complete central office modernization option for legacy TDM DCS migration and SONET/SDH ADM ring overlay/migration, as well as facilitating the transition to packet-based networks over time

● A carrier class design that requires a much smaller central office footprint (some configurations provide more than 2 times the capacity of multiple DCS/ADM equipment) with significant power and cooling savings compared to legacy products

All ASR 900 Series TDM/PDH/SONET/SDH interface modules support Online Insertion and Removal (OIR), which contributes to a higher uptime for ASR 900 Series systems.

Multiservice (IoT) Interface Modules

Cisco ASR 900 Series multiservice interface modules are designed to help customers connect to legacy networks and transition to packet networks. The modules support connections to Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), Multilink PPP, ATM, Inverse Multiplexing over ATM (IMA), and High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) links. In addition, the interface modules can be used to transport Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) and ATM interfaces over an IP/Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) packet network using Pseudowire Emulation (PWE) services, such as Circuit Emulation Services over Packet Switched Network (CESoPSN) and Structure-Agnostic Transport over Packet (SAToP) transport. Software support for the interface module hardware capabilities will be delivered over time in the several Cisco IOS XE software releases scheduled for the Cisco ASR 900 Series routers. Software support is described in the Cisco IOS XE Software for Cisco ASR 900 Series Aggregation Services Routers data sheet, which will contain updates for new capabilities when they are supported.

All ASR 900 Series multiservice interface modules support OIR, which contributes to a higher uptime for ASR 900 Series routers.

Cisco ASR 900 Series 6-port E&M Module (A900-IMA6EM)

This interface module delivers 6 ports of Ear and Mouth (E&M) interfaces. The design emphasizes Smart-Grid and low-latency applications environments. Typical uses cases for this module are Teleprotection and Land Mobile Radio applications. The module supports E&M type I, II, III, and V on 2 or 4 wire modes with selectable 600 or 900 ohm impedances. The physical connectivity on the interface module is using standards based RJ-45 connectors. The E&M signals and voice data can be transported using CESoPSN with and without Channel Attached Signaling (CAS) over MPLS.

Cisco ASR 900 Series 14-port Serial Module (A900-IMASER14A/S)

This interface module delivers 14 ports of asynchronous RS-232 to facilitate connectivity to devices that require RS-232 connectivity. Coupled with the Raw Socket feature and functionality, this interface module is a key enabler to provide transport of traditional async serial-based protocols, such as Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), across IP/MPLS networks. These scenarios help ease migration from traditional serial-based devices to next-generation IP-enabled devices by adding to the flexible set of connectivity options on the Cisco ASR 903 Router.

The interface module uses six standard Cisco 12-in-1 connectors, along with two high-density 68-pin connectors, to provide the 14 ports of asynchronous RS-232. Supported cables for both the 12-in-1 connectors and the 68-pin connectors are listed in Table 18.

Cisco ASR 900 Series 4-port C37.94 Interface Module (A900-IMA4C3794)

This interface module is designed for Connected Energy or Smart Grid (Utility) applications. This interface module delivers four optical interfaces conforming to the IEEE C37.94 standard, and processing functionality that allow C37.94 connections to be carried transparently over an IP/MPLS network using CESoPSN. This capability enables Utilities to migrate their communication networks from TDM to IP/MPLS, using the C37.94 as a standard interface for Tele-protection relays. Tele-protection schemes employ protection relays that sense anomalies in power line current, phase or voltage, and signal between geographically separate substations to protect grid infrastructure such as transformers and circuit breakers, as depicted in Figure 7.
