Cisco Smartphone Tethering Detection 1k Sessions | Policy Control — ASR5K-00-CD01STD=

Keep mobile traffic under control when smartphone tethering starts to consume capacity meant for primary subscribers and enterprise applications. Cisco Smartphone Tethering Detection for 1,000 sessions gives service teams a practical way to identify tethering behavior and apply policy before it distorts usage patterns or degrades experience. Built for environments where visibility matters, this software service supports tighter control over how mobile data is consumed across the network. It helps operators distinguish tethered traffic from standard handset use, making it easier to enforce plan terms, protect shared resources, and maintain more consistent performance during peak demand. For providers and enterprise mobility teams, the value is operational clarity. Instead of reacting after congestion appears, you can act on tethering activity with a defined session capacity that fits targeted deployments. That makes this SKU a strong fit when you need a focused policy-control layer without overbuying capacity you will not use.
