The ASR1000-SIP40 is the Cisco ASR 1000 Series SPA Interface Processor 40G (SIP40), the carrier card that holds shared port adapters in an ASR 1000 router. It provides 40 Gbps of aggregate bandwidth per slot, where the SIP10 provides 10 Gbps. In the ASR 1013, the SIP40 runs at 40 Gbps in slots 0 to 3 and at 10 Gbps in slots 4 and 5.
The SIP40 takes up to four single-height SPAs and two double-height SPAs, and the two heights can be mixed on one SIP. Double-wide SPAs are not supported. It supports ingress packet classification and buffering to allow for oversubscription, and it does not take part in forwarding decisions. Both the SIP and the SPAs it holds support online insertion and removal.
The Cisco ASR 1004, ASR 1006 and ASR 1013 routers support the SIP40 as a modular component; the ASR 1002 does not. The SIP40 connects to an ESP in the same way as the SIP10, and the ESP in the chassis sets the forwarding capacity of the router. A SIP10 and a SIP40 can share a chassis, with the ESP setting the slot bandwidth. The minimum software is Cisco IOS XE Release 3.1S.
Other ASR 1000 modules include the ASR1000-ESP40 40G embedded services processor and the SPA-1X10GE-L-V2 1-port 10GE shared port adapter. More modules are in Cisco interface cards.
