Every WhaleyComm unit is professionally tested, reset to factory defaults, and certified by our in-house engineers — the same standard trusted by 5,000+ organisations across 25 years. Not a refurb marketplace. A certified lifecycle partner.
Professionally tested to factory specification. Backed by 25+ years of enterprise trust.
This refurbished Cisco 40x10GE-WLO is a 40-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Interface Module designed for the Cisco Carrier Routing System CRS-X platform. Every unit is professionally tested and reset to factory defaults before shipment, ensuring it performs to original Cisco specification. The 40x10GE-WLO is a 400-Gbps physical interface module that pairs with the Cisco CRS-X Modular Services Card, delivering 40 ports of 10GbE connectivity with full LAN, WAN, and OTN support in a high-density, carrier-grade form factor.Built for the demands of service provider and carrier core networks, the 40x10GE-WLO operates within the Cisco CRS architecture — powered by Cisco IOS XR Software and advanced application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). It is compatible with both the enhanced Cisco CRS line-card chassis in 400-Gbps mode and legacy Cisco CRS line-card chassis in 200-Gbps mode, providing a flexible migration path. The module supports IPv4 and IPv6 unicast services, ECMP load balancing, MPLS forwarding, hierarchical QoS, ACLs, ingress and egress policing, and IP multicast features including PIM forwarding and Multicast NSF.
At $499, this unit represents substantial savings versus new list pricing for enterprise and service provider teams that need proven CRS-X interface capacity without the cost of new hardware. WhaleyComm is ISO 9001, R2v3, e-Stewards, and UNEDA certified — every unit we ship is held to the same standard we have maintained across 5,000+ enterprise customers for over 25 years.

Ideal Use Cases
Service Provider Core Routing
Engineered for carrier-grade core and edge deployments, the 40x10GE-WLO delivers 40 ports of 10GbE density within the Cisco CRS-X platform, supporting the high-throughput forwarding demands of service provider backbone networks.
CRS-X Capacity Expansion
Organizations running Cisco CRS chassis can expand per-slot forwarding capacity by deploying the 40x10GE-WLO as a 400-Gbps interface module, pairing it with the CRS-X MSC to scale infrastructure without a full platform replacement.
Legacy CRS Migration
The 40x10GE-WLO is compatible with legacy Cisco CRS line-card chassis in 200-Gbps mode, enabling in-service migration from CRS-1 or CRS-3 environments to CRS-X without disrupting existing network operations.
MPLS and IP/Optical Convergence
With full MPLS forwarding and OTN interface support, this module is well suited for networks converging IP and optical transport layers, supporting traffic engineering and hierarchical QoS across service provider infrastructure.
High-Density 10GbE Aggregation
The 40-port 10GbE density makes this module ideal for aggregating high-volume traffic from multiple downstream network segments at the core or edge of large enterprise or carrier networks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product-specific answers about compatibility, testing, warranty, fulfilment, and purchase confidence.
The 40x10GE-WLO is compatible with enhanced Cisco CRS line-card chassis operating in 400-Gbps mode and with legacy Cisco CRS line-card chassis operating in 200-Gbps mode. It is supported across CRS-X, CRS-3, and CRS-1 chassis environments. Always verify your specific chassis and fabric card configuration with your Cisco documentation before deployment.
The 40x10GE-WLO requires Cisco IOS XR Software Release 5.1.1 or later, as specified in the official Cisco CRS-X Modular Services Card data sheet. Ensure your CRS platform is running a compatible IOS XR release before installing this interface module.
Yes. According to Cisco's official documentation, the 40x10GE-WLO is always paired with a Cisco CRS-X Modular Services Card (MSC). It functions as a physical interface module and must be used in conjunction with the MSC for full operation.
Yes. Every WhaleyComm unit ships with a Lifetime Warranty. If it fails under normal operating conditions at any point, we replace it at no cost — no time limits, no questions asked.
