The Cisco A9K-MPA-1X100GE is a Refurbished 1-port 100 Gigabit Ethernet Modular Port Adapter engineered for deployment in Cisco ASR 9000 Series aggregation and core routers. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of service provider backbones, enterprise WAN cores, and large-scale data center interconnect environments, this MPA delivers a single 100GE interface with the reliability and performance that the ASR 9000 platform is known for.As a Modular Port Adapter, the A9K-MPA-1X100GE slots into supported ASR 9000 line cards, extending port density and allowing network architects to scale bandwidth precisely where it is needed without overprovisioning. The 100GE interface supports high-speed optical connectivity, making it ideal for backbone aggregation, inter-data-center links, and peering connections where maximum throughput and low latency are non-negotiable.
Purchasing this module in Refurbished condition through WhaleyComm provides enterprises and service providers with access to Cisco's proven ASR 9000 ecosystem at a fraction of the cost of new hardware. Each unit is inspected and tested to verify functionality before shipment. This makes the A9K-MPA-1X100GE an excellent choice for network expansions, lab environments, disaster recovery buildouts, or budget-conscious infrastructure upgrades that still demand carrier-grade performance and compatibility with existing ASR 9000 deployments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product-specific answers about compatibility, testing, warranty, fulfilment, and purchase confidence.
The A9K-MPA-1X100GE is designed for the Cisco ASR 9000 Series router platform, where it installs into supported line cards as a Modular Port Adapter. Always verify the specific line card and chassis compatibility with Cisco's official documentation before ordering.
Refurbished means the unit has been previously deployed and has since been inspected and tested to confirm it is in proper working condition. It offers a cost-effective alternative to purchasing new hardware while still delivering the functionality expected of Cisco enterprise-grade equipment.
Transceiver inclusion varies by listing configuration; please confirm with a WhaleyComm sales representative whether a 100GE optic module is bundled or needs to be ordered separately to complete your deployment.
The ASR 9000 Series operates on Cisco IOS XR. The specific minimum IOS XR release required to support this MPA should be verified against Cisco's official release notes and compatibility matrices to ensure full feature support in your environment.
