Cisco Alteon D-Line NFV 40G to 100G Upgrade | Software Option — L-RDAV-40GU100G=

Increase throughput capacity on an existing Alteon D-Line NFV deployment with a software upgrade from 40G to 100G. Designed for infrastructure teams that need more performance without a hardware refresh, this option extends the useful life of the current platform while creating room for higher application demand, traffic growth, and service consolidation. For environments where capacity planning matters, a software-based upgrade is often the cleaner path. It avoids the operational disruption of replacing the underlying deployment and keeps the focus on scaling the service tier you already run. That makes it a practical choice for teams supporting business-critical applications, remote users, or expanding digital services that are outgrowing the current 40G ceiling. This upgrade is best suited for organizations that want to preserve their existing Alteon investment while moving to a higher-capacity operating point. It helps align performance with demand, reduces the pressure to overprovision early, and supports a more deliberate refresh strategy. For procurement and architecture teams, it is a targeted way to buy capacity only where it is needed.
