Cisco NCS 5500 Peering License NC55P-PEER-100S | 100G Bandwidth — NC55P-PEER-100S

Match peering capacity to real traffic demand on Cisco NCS 5500 SE with a license built around 100G bandwidth increments. This entitlement is designed for infrastructure teams that need predictable scale without overcommitting to unused capacity. It gives you a clean way to expand peering on the NCS 5500 platform while keeping procurement aligned to measured growth. For service providers and large enterprise networks, peering is not a generic add-on. It is a capacity decision that affects routing scale, traffic engineering, and long-term platform planning. This license supports that planning model by tying entitlement to bandwidth, making it easier to map spend to actual network requirements. That matters when the cost of under-sizing is congestion, and the cost of over-sizing is stranded budget. Use it when you need to extend the value of an existing Cisco routing investment and maintain a clear path for expansion. The result is tighter control over capacity, cleaner budgeting, and a licensing model that fits high-throughput peering environments. Ideal For Expand peering capacity on an existing Cisco NCS 5500 SE deployment Match licensing spend to incremental 100G traffic growth Support service provider edge routing capacity planning Add entitlement for high-throughput interconnect environments Why This Product 1 Bandwidth-based licensing instead of fixed-capacity bundles 2 Built for Cisco NCS 5500 SE deployments 3 Supports incremental peering growth planning 4 Helps align spend with actual traffic demand
