The Cisco ASR1002HX-IPSECHW is a hardware-based IPsec encryption acceleration module purpose-built for the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router. By offloading IPsec encryption and decryption tasks to dedicated silicon, this module enables the ASR 1002-HX to deliver high-performance, line-rate VPN throughput without placing additional burden on the platform's primary processing resources.Designed for enterprise WAN edge and service provider environments, this module supports demanding IPsec deployments including site-to-site VPN, DMVPN, and encrypted MPLS handoffs. The hardware acceleration ensures consistent, predictable performance even as tunnel counts and traffic volumes scale, making it well-suited for organizations prioritizing both security and performance.
This refurbished Cisco ASR1002HX-IPSECHW module has been inspected and tested to ensure reliable operation, offering a cost-effective path to hardware-grade encryption capability. It installs directly into the ASR 1002-HX chassis and works in conjunction with Cisco IOS XE software to deliver a fully integrated encryption solution.
Purchasing refurbished networking hardware from WhaleyComm allows organizations to maximize infrastructure budgets without compromising on the enterprise-grade performance and reliability that Cisco equipment is known for. Each unit is sourced responsibly and processed to meet functional standards before resale.

Ideal Use Cases
Enterprise Site-to-Site VPN Scaling
Organizations running large numbers of IPsec site-to-site tunnels can leverage this module to offload encryption workloads entirely to dedicated hardware. This ensures consistent throughput and low latency across branch and campus VPN connections without degrading routing performance.
Secure WAN Edge Deployment
Service providers and enterprises deploying the ASR 1002-HX at the WAN edge can use this module to enforce encryption policy on high-volume internet and MPLS traffic. Hardware acceleration ensures wire-speed encryption performance even during peak traffic periods.
DMVPN Infrastructure Buildout
Network teams building out Dynamic Multipoint VPN architectures benefit from hardware-accelerated IPsec to support hub-and-spoke or full-mesh topologies at scale. The module enables the ASR 1002-HX to serve as a high-performance DMVPN hub without processing bottlenecks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Product-specific answers about compatibility, testing, warranty, fulfilment, and purchase confidence.
This module provides dedicated hardware-based IPsec encryption acceleration for the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router, offloading encryption and decryption tasks from the main processor to enable higher VPN throughput and more consistent performance.
No — the ASR1002HX-IPSECHW is specifically designed for the Cisco ASR 1002-HX Router. It is not intended for use in other ASR 1000 Series chassis variants, so please confirm your platform before ordering.
Refurbished means the module has been previously deployed, then inspected and functionally tested to verify proper operation before being made available for resale. This provides a reliable, cost-effective alternative to purchasing new hardware.
Hardware encryption modules like this one typically require a compatible IOS XE software release to function properly. We recommend consulting Cisco's official software compatibility documentation or contacting your Cisco account team to confirm the appropriate IOS XE version for your environment.
