Cisco Network Convergence System 1002 - Control processor - plug-in module
The Cisco NCS 1002 is mechanically optimized for controlled operational environments. At 2 RU, the system supports up to 2 Tbps of client and 2 Tbps of trunk traffic. The system uses a Linux kernel with the 64 bit IOS XR OS in a Linux Container (LxC) and admin plane operating in a separate LxC. It encompasses carrier-class software with a number of features such as machine-to-machine APIs based on YANG data models, streaming telemetry agent for real time, granular device monitoring and also an infrastructure for 3rd party applications. The NCS 1002 has 2 redundant and field replaceable AC & DC power supply units and 3 redundant and field replaceable fans. It also provides field replaceable controller and SSD disk. The NCS 1002 provides four "slices" of I/O management. Each slice contains up to twenty 10 Gbe or five 40 Gbe/100 Gbe client ports. The client ports map to two trunk ports operating at 100G, 200G or 250Gbps DWDM, providing transponder or muxponder functionality. The modulation format of each trunk port is software-configurable per slice.
