Cisco ASR 1001-X 2.5G to 20 Gbps Upgrade License | Enterprise Licensing — CON-L1NCD-FLSA11XW

Increase forwarding capacity on the Cisco ASR 1001-X with a licensed upgrade path from 2.5 Gbps to 20 Gbps. Built for environments that need more throughput without a hardware refresh, this entitlement extends the useful life of the platform while preserving the operational model your team already knows. For infrastructure teams, the value is straightforward: more performance from an installed base router, less disruption than a replacement cycle, and a cleaner way to align capacity with traffic growth. That makes it a practical choice for branch aggregation, WAN edge expansion, and sites where routing demand has outgrown the original license level. Because this is a Cisco license tied to the ASR 1001-X platform, it is suited to organizations that want to protect prior investment while maintaining a consistent deployment standard. It helps keep procurement focused on capacity expansion rather than full platform replacement, which can reduce project scope and simplify planning.
