Cisco ASR 9000 Virtual Interfaces 10Gbps RTU License | Carrier Routing — S-A9K-VIRT-RTU-10

Add 10 Gbps virtual interface entitlement to an ASR 9000 deployment without changing the physical chassis footprint. This Cisco right-to-use license is designed for teams that need to increase logical interface capacity while keeping network architecture stable, procurement simple, and expansion aligned to actual demand. For service provider and large enterprise routing environments, the value is in precision. You can activate the licensed capability on supported ASR 9000 platforms and extend throughput planning without overbuying hardware that sits idle. That makes it easier to match capacity to traffic growth, service turn-up schedules, and budget cycles. Because this is a software entitlement rather than a hardware refresh, it fits environments where uptime, change control, and lifecycle discipline matter. It supports a more measured expansion strategy for backbone, aggregation, and edge routing designs that depend on Cisco ASR 9000 infrastructure. Ideal For Increase virtual interface capacity on an existing ASR 9000 deployment Support service provider edge routing growth without new chassis purchases Add licensed throughput for aggregation networks with controlled expansion Extend capacity planning in environments with strict change management Why This Product 1 Adds licensed capacity without chassis replacement 2 Fits ASR 9000 environments already standardized on Cisco routing 3 Supports measured growth instead of speculative hardware spend 4 Uses a software entitlement model for simpler deployment planning
