Cisco ASR1001-X 2.5G Base Bundle, K9, AES | Enterprise Router — CON-L14OS-ASR105GK

Protect branch and edge traffic with the Cisco ASR1001-X, 2.5G Base Bundle, K9, AES, Built-in 6x1G. This platform is built for organizations that need secure routing in a compact footprint, with integrated 1 GbE connectivity and AES support for encrypted traffic handling. It is a strong fit for sites where performance, security, and operational simplicity all matter. The ASR1001-X is designed to sit at the intersection of WAN edge routing and branch consolidation. Built-in 6x1G ports reduce the need for immediate add-on switching in smaller deployments, while the 2.5G base bundle gives teams more capacity than basic branch routers typically offer. That makes it a practical choice for infrastructure groups standardizing on Cisco routing while keeping rack space, power draw, and deployment complexity under control. For procurement teams, this model earns its place by combining secure transport capabilities with a deployment profile suited to branch offices, remote sites, and distributed enterprise networks. It is the kind of router you buy when uptime, encryption, and clean integration matter more than lowest-cost hardware.
