CiscouBR10012 Universal Broadband Router Chassis Overview
Hardware Supported on the Cisco uBR10012 Router
CiscoIOS Release 12.3(9a)BC supports the following hardware on the CiscouBR10012 router. This
and earlier descriptions of supported hardware are available in the release notes for your respective
CiscoIOS release.
Table4 CiscouBR10012 Universal Broadband Router Supported Hardware
Cable Interface Line cards Up to eight of the following broadband processing engines and cable
interface line cards can be housed in a chassis in any combination:
•Cisco uBR10-MC5X20S/U broadband processing engines
•Cisco uBR10-LCP2-MC16C/MC16E/MC16S cable interface
line cards
•Cisco uBR10-LCP2-MC28C cable interface line cards
Note The Cisco uBR7200 Series MC28U BPE does not support the
Cisco uBR10012 router, though the Cisco MC28U BPE
physically fits into the Cisco uBR10012 router chassis.
Network Uplink Line Cards Up to four line cards with any combination of the following WAN
choices:
•Cisco uBR10-SRP-OC12SML DPT WAN Line Card for the
Cisco uBR10012 Router
•CiscouBR10012 OC-48 DPT/POS interface module
•Cisco uBR10-1GE Gigabit Ethernet (GigE) uplink line card
•Cisco uBR10-1OC12/P-SMI OC-12 POS uplink line card
•Cisco uBR10-SRP-OC12SML Dynamic Packet Transport (DPT)
WAN card
Timing, Communication and
Control Plus (TCC+) card The TCC+ card can connect to an external reference Stratum 3 clock
source that is traceable to a Stratum 1 source. Two such sources can
be connected for redundancy.
The TCC+ card also monitors the cable line cards and power supply
use, as well as control the LCD display screen on the chassis. Two
cards can be installed for redundancy.
Performance Routing Engine 2
(PRE2) The new Cisco uBR10012 Series PRE2 effectively doubles the
bandwidth available to each slot on the router as supported by cable
interface line cards or Cisco Broadband Processing Engines.
The PRE2 module introduces support for full-duplex Gigabit
Ethernet ports, and increases the supported connections to 1.6 Gbps
in full duplex (each direction per half-slot). Full-slot modules can
now have up to 3.2 Gbps to and from the PRE2 module. This is twice
the connection rate of the Cisco uBR10012 PRE1 route processor
module.
