Cisco Core & Agg Advantage RTU 400G for Cisco 8000 Series | Enterprise Licensing — E3P-N-CA-400G-RTUR

Extend Cisco 8000 Series routing capacity with a 400G right-to-use license built for core and aggregation deployments. This entitlement is designed for infrastructure teams that need to activate higher-speed forwarding on existing platforms while preserving architectural consistency across the network. For operators managing backbone growth, aggregation density, or phased migration plans, this license supports a cleaner path to capacity expansion. It helps align procurement with actual deployment timing, so teams can scale when traffic demands justify it rather than overbuying hardware early. Because it is tied to the Cisco 8000 Series, the license fits environments that already standardize on that platform family and want to maintain a controlled software entitlement model. That makes it a practical choice for enterprise networks where performance targets, lifecycle planning, and budget governance all matter. Use it when you need to add 400G capability to core and aggregation infrastructure without introducing a new platform class. The result is more precise capacity planning, simpler asset control, and a licensing model that matches the operational value of the hardware already in place.
