Cisco NCS 560 Series Router N560-4-RSP4E= 800G | Router, Enterprise — N560-4-RSP4E=

Keep critical traffic moving with a router platform built for high-throughput network cores and service provider edge deployments. Cisco NCS 560 Series Router in the 4RU form factor combines a Route Switch Processor 4E with 800G capability, giving infrastructure teams the headroom needed for dense aggregation, high-speed forwarding, and growth without immediate platform replacement. This model is suited to environments where routing performance, scale, and operational stability matter more than commodity pricing. The 4RU chassis provides a substantial hardware footprint for network designs that need room for expansion and sustained throughput under load. For teams planning around long service life, the NCS 560 series offers a clear path for building capacity into the network rather than chasing it later. Cisco positioning in this class typically reflects the needs of carrier, metro, and large enterprise backbones where predictable forwarding behavior and platform consistency are essential. If your network design calls for a router that can anchor high-bandwidth traffic flows and support demanding infrastructure requirements, this configuration delivers the specification profile procurement teams expect at this tier. Ideal For Service provider edge routing for high-bandwidth subscriber aggregation Metro network aggregation where sustained forwarding capacity is required Core or distribution routing in large enterprise infrastructure Network expansion projects that need a higher-capacity router platform Why This Product 1 Higher-capacity routing platform than entry-level edge routers 2 4RU chassis supports denser infrastructure planning 3 Route Switch Processor 4E targets sustained forwarding performance 4 800G capability suits demanding aggregation and backbone roles
