The SPA-4XOC12-POS is a Cisco 4-port OC-12/STM-4 packet over SONET/SDH (POS) shared port adapter. It is a POS adapter for the ASR 1000 Series and ASR 9000 Series routers, and the same family has the 2-port SPA-2XOC12-POS and the 8-port SPA-8XOC12-POS.
On the Cisco ASR 9000 Series the SPA is a single-height module with 4 OC12 ports. It needs Cisco IOS XR Release 4.3.0 or later and minimum hardware revision 1.0. The ASR 9000 SPA support data sheet includes it among the POS adapters, alongside the 4-port OC-3c/STM-1 SPA-4XOC3-POS and the 4-port OC-48 SPA-4XOC48POS/RPR.
On the Cisco ASR 1000 Series the same SPA is covered by the SPA and SPA interface processor support data sheet, which also covers the ASR1000-SIP10 and ASR1000-SIP40 interface processors. The ASR 1002-F front view in the Cisco installation guide has it installed beside the ASR 1002-ESP-F and a route processor.
SPAs are modular port adapters that are interchangeable across Cisco carrier routing platforms. More WAN adapters are in Cisco interface cards.
