Modular Port Adapters
The Cisco ASR 9001 Router has two ethernet pluggable ports that support these Modular Port Adapters
(MPAs):
•20-Port GE MPA
•4-Port 10-GE MPA
•2-Port 10-GE MPA
Note In Cisco ASR 9001-S Router, one ethernet pluggable port (MPA1) is disabled by default, and can be
enabled by license upgrade.
20-Port Gigabit Ethernet Modular Port Adapter
The 20-Port Gigabit Ethernet modular port adapter provides 10 double-stacked SFP (20 total) cages that
support either fiber-optic or copper Gigabit Ethernet transceivers.
Each SFP cage on the Gigabit Ethernet modular port adapter has an adjacent Link LED visible on the
front panel. The Link LED indicates the status of the associated SFP port, as described in Table 4-4.
Refer to Figure 3-2 for an example of the 20-Port Gigabit Ethernet Modular Port Adapter.
