Cisco ASR 9000 Series Route Switch Processor 880-LT for Packet Transport (A9K-RSP880-LT-TR)

The Cisco A9K-RSP880-LT-TR is a high-capacity Route Switch Processor (RSP) designed for the Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers (including ASR 9010, ASR 9006, ASR 9904, ASR 9910, and ASR 9906). It is the RSP880-LT model, optimized for packet transport. It delivers 880 Gbps switch fabric capacity (non-redundant) and supports high-density 100-Gigabit Ethernet line cards. It runs on Cisco IOS XR Software, supporting advanced routing protocols like BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, and MPLS, along with Carrier Ethernet edge features, Layer 2/3 service convergence, and robust security/automation capabilities. The LT version is distinguished by having 4 cores at 2.4Ghz, compared to the SE version's 8 cores at 1.9Ghz, and is sometimes noted for low-latency applications. It features a distributed switch fabric architecture, multistage low-latency nonblocking architecture, and superior network-timing capabilities including BITS and PTP support. It typically includes 2 x 10G SFP+ network ports an
