Cisco ASR5K Base Throughput License, per Gbps | Carrier, Routing — ASR5K-00-GTL-1G=

Expand network throughput with Cisco System SW - Base Throughput License, per Gbps. This licensing model is designed for Cisco ASR 5000 environments where capacity must track traffic demand with precision. By tying entitlement to throughput, it gives network teams a clean way to plan growth, match service tiers, and control software spend as utilization rises. For carrier and service-provider deployments, the advantage is operational clarity. You can scale in measured increments, keep procurement aligned to actual bandwidth requirements, and avoid paying for capacity you do not need yet. That matters when the platform sits in the path of subscriber traffic, policy enforcement, or service delivery. This license is a fit for teams that value exact capacity planning, predictable expansion, and a licensing structure that mirrors the economics of the network itself. Ideal For Service provider platforms that need throughput-based scaling Cisco ASR 5000 deployments with growing subscriber traffic Network teams planning capacity in measured Gbps increments Carrier environments that require precise software entitlement for bandwidth Why This Product 1 Capacity-based licensing is better suited to traffic growth than fixed bundles 2 Per-Gbps entitlement helps align spend with actual network demand 3 Designed for Cisco ASR 5000 environments rather than generic software use 4 Useful when precise throughput planning matters more than broad feature access
