The Cisco ASR1002X-20G-K9 is part of the ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Router family, purpose-built for enterprise WAN edge and service provider environments that demand high throughput, resilience, and advanced services in a space-efficient form factor.
Housed in a 2 rack unit (2RU) chassis, this router delivers 20 Gbps of aggregated system throughput, making it well-suited for demanding network edge scenarios including MPLS, VPN termination, NAT, firewall, and quality of service enforcement. The ASR 1002X leverages Cisco's QuantumFlow Processor (QFP) for hardware-accelerated forwarding, ensuring consistent performance even under complex service loads.
