Keep carrier-grade access services under support with Cisco Smart Net Total Care for the ASR 900 4-port OC3/STM1 configuration. This service is designed for teams that need predictable response coverage, dependable replacement handling, and access to Cisco technical resources when network hardware issues threaten service availability. For infrastructure environments carrying legacy SONET/SDH traffic, the value is not just coverage — it is faster path back to stable operation. 8x5xNBD support aligns with standard business-hour operations while preserving a next-business-day replacement model that helps control maintenance cost without leaving critical transport equipment exposed. This service fits organizations that still depend on OC3/STM1 connectivity for branch aggregation, transport handoff, or specialized network segments. It provides a practical support layer for hardware that remains important to uptime, compliance, and operational continuity. For procurement teams, it offers a clear way to extend the service life of deployed Cisco infrastructure without overbuying premium around-the-clock coverage where it is not required.
