Cisco Advantage Right-to-Use 400G for 8000E Series | Licensing — E3P-N-8KE-400GRTUR

Scale Cisco 8000E Series routing capacity to 400G with a right-to-use license built for measured expansion. This entitlement helps infrastructure teams add throughput when traffic growth, service consolidation, or backbone redesign calls for more headroom, without forcing an immediate hardware refresh. For enterprise networks, the value is control. You can align spend with deployment timing, preserve procurement flexibility, and expand capacity in step with operational demand. That matters when the network must support critical applications, high-volume east-west traffic, or aggregation layers that cannot tolerate bottlenecks. Because this is a Cisco licensing item, it is designed to complement the underlying 8000E platform rather than replace it. The result is a cleaner path to capacity growth, with less disruption than a full platform swap and more precision than oversizing from day one. For teams managing long lifecycle infrastructure, that balance can make a meaningful difference in both budget discipline and network planning. Ideal For Enable additional routing capacity on Cisco 8000E Series backbone deployments Stage network expansion for traffic growth without immediate hardware replacement Support procurement planning for enterprise routing upgrades Add licensed throughput for service provider or large campus aggregation environments Why This Product 1 Adds 400G capacity through licensing rather than hardware replacement 2 Supports Cisco 8000E Series deployments specifically 3 Helps align spend with actual traffic growth 4 Reduces disruption compared with a full platform refresh
