This is the ASR 9000 SPA Interface Processor-700 in its 8 GB memory version. It is a line card that carries shared port adapters rather than fixed ports, so the port types depend on the SPAs fitted.
A SIP-700 holds up to four single-height SPAs or two double-height SPAs, or a mix within those limits. It occupies one line card slot and can be used in any ASR 9000 chassis, including the 9010 and 9006 without power-zone restrictions. Cisco IOS XR 3.9 or later is the software floor for the SIP-700 platform, and no software licence is needed for it. A single SIP-700 version handles several SPA types.
The SIP-700 board is 14 in wide, 1.72 in high and 20.5 in deep, weighs 14 lb and draws up to 375 W. The 8 GB memory is what separates this ordering code from the standard SIP-700; the code identifies the SPA Interface Processor-700 fitted with 8 GB of memory.
Cisco announced end-of-sale on November 30, 2021; the end-of-sale date is November 30, 2022 and the last date of support is November 30, 2027.
