This ASR 5000 starter bundle combines two system management cards, three PSC2 packet services cards, two redundancy crossbar cards and two SPIO cards, with the 32 GB memory option in its order code. It is listed in the Cisco misc range for the chassis.
The packet services cards in this bundle each hold two quad-core x86 CPUs and 32 GB of RAM plus a dedicated security processor for cryptographic acceleration, and they cannot be mixed with other packet processing card types in the same chassis. They occupy slots 1-7 and 10-16.
The two system management cards sit in slots 8 and 9, each with a dual-core CPU and 4 GB of RAM, and the redundancy crossbar cards go in slots 40 and 41 with 28 serial links and 70 Gbps of crossbar each. The SPIO cards in slots 24 and 25 add two SFP and two RJ-45 Gigabit management ports and an RS-232 console.
On the SPIO, the optional BITS timing module offers an analog E1 BNC connector or a T1 3-pin wire-wrap connector. The chassis switch fabric is 320 Gbps.
