Product Specifications
The following application and line cards are required to support CDMA2000 wireless data services on the system:
Hardware Requirements
Platforms
The Home Agent service operates on the ASR 5000 Series platform.
Components
The following application and line cards are required to support HA functionality on an ASR 5000 platform:
System Management Cards (SMCs): Provides full system control and management of all cards within the ASR
5000 platform. Up to two SMC can be installed; one active, one redundant.
Packet Processing Cards (PSC, PSC2, PPC): Within the ASR 5000 platform, packet processing cards provide
high-speed, multi-threaded PPP processing capabilities to support HA services. Up to 14 packet processing
cards can be installed, allowing for multiple active and/or redundant cards.
Switch Processor Input/Outputs (SPIO): Installed in the upper-rear chassis slots directly behind the SMCs,
SPIOs provide connectivity for local and remote management, Central Office (CO) alarms. Up to two SPIOs
can be installed; one active, one redundant.
Ethernet 10/100 and/or Ethernet 1000/Quad Ethernet 1000 Line Cards: Installed directly behind processing
cards, these cards provide the RP, AAA, PDN, and Pi interfaces to elements in the data network. Up to 26 line
cards should be installed for a fully loaded system with 13 active processing cards, 13 in the upper-rear slots
and 13 in the lower-rear slots for redundancy. Redundant processing cards do no not require line cards.
Redundancy Crossbar Cards (RCCs): Installed in the lower-rear chassis slots directly behind the SMCs,
RCCs utilize 5 Gbps serial links to ensure connectivity between Ethernet 10/100 or Ethernet 1000/Quad
Ethernet 1000 line cards and every processing card in the system for redundancy. Two RCCs can be installed
to provide redundancy for all line cards and processing cards.
