SIP and SPA Product Overview
This chapter provides an introduction to SPA interface processors (SIPs) and shared port adapters
(SPAs). It includes the following sections:
• Introduction to SIPs and SPAs, page 1-1
• SIP and SPA Compatibility, page 1-2
• Modular Optics Compatibility, page 1-3
For software details for the specific SIPs and SPAs that are supported on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series
Aggregation Services Routers, refer to the companion publication, Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers SIP and SPA Software Configuration Guide.
Introduction to SIPs and SPAs
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers SIPs and SPAs are a carrier card and port adapter
architecture that increases modularity, flexibility, and density across Cisco routers for network
connectivity. This section describes the SIPs and SPAs and provides some guidelines for their use.
CHAPTER
1
SPA Interface Processors
The following list describes some of the general characteristics of a SIP:
• A SIP is a carrier card that inserts into a router slot like a line card. It provides no network
connectivity on its own.
• A SIP contains one or more subslots, which are used to house one or more SPAs. The SPA provides
interface ports for network connectivity.
• During normal operation, the SIP should reside in the router fully populated either with functional
SPAs in all subslots, or with a blank filler plate (SPA-BLANK=) inserted in all empty subslots.
• SIPs support online insertion and removal (OIR) with SPAs inserted in their subslots. SPAs also
support OIR and can be inserted or removed independently from the SIP.
NoteFully populate all slots and subslots with blank filler plates or functional SPAs for maximum efficiency
of the cooling system.

SIP and SPA Compatibility
Shared Port Adapters
The following list describes some of the general characteristics of a SPA:
• A SPA is a modular type of port adapter that inserts into a subslot of a compatible SIP carrier card
to provide network connectivity and increased interface port density. A SIP can hold one or more
SPAs, depending on the SIP type.
• A single-height SPA inserts into one SIP subslot. (See Figure 1-1.)

Chapter 1 SIP and SPA Product Overview
SPA 2SPA 3
CautionSIP subslot 0 is not available on the Cisco ASR 1002 Router as that is the slot occupied by the integrated
Route Processor with native Gigabit Ethernet ports.
• Each SPA provides a certain number of connectors, or ports, that are the interfaces to one or more
networks. These interfaces can be individually configured using the Cisco IOS command-line
interface (CLI).
• Either a blank filler plate or a functional SPA should reside in every subslot of a SIP during normal
operation to maintain cooling integrity. Blank filler plates are available in single-height form only.
• SPAs support online insertion and removal (OIR). They can be inserted or removed independently
from the SIP. SIPs also support OIR with SPAs inserted in their subslots.
SIP and SPA Compatibility
Table 1-1, Table 1-2, and Table 1-3 show SIP and SPA compatibility by SPA technology area on the
Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers.
NoteFor more information about the introduction of support for different SIPs and SPAs, refer to the “Release
History” sections in the overview chapters of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers
SIP and SPA Software Configuration Guide.

Some SPAs implement small form-factor pluggable (SFP) optical transceivers to provide network
connectivity. An SFP module is a transceiver device that mounts into the front panel to provide network
connectivity.
Cisco qualifies the SFP modules that can be used with SPAs.
NoteThe SPAs will only accept the SFP modules listed as supported in this document. An SFP module check
is run every time an SFP module is inserted into a SPA and only SFP modules that pass this check will be
usable.

Identifying Slots and Subslots for SIPs and SPAs
This section describes how to specify the physical locations of a SIP and SPA on the Cisco ASR 1000
Series Routers within the command-line interface (CLI) to configure or monitor the devices.
Specifying the Slot Location for a SIP
The Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers support different chassis models, each of which supports a certain
number of chassis slots.
• The Cisco ASR 1006 Router supports three chassis slots for SIPs.
• The Cisco ASR 1004 Router supports two chassis slots for SIPs.
• The Cisco ASR 1002 Router supports one chassis slot for a SIP that is permanently installed, and
the integrated Route Processor and Gigabit Ethernet ports reside in SPA subslot 0.
2-2
Figure 2-1 shows an example of a SIP installed on a Cisco ASR 1006 Router. The router has three
chassis slots for SIPs, and can accommodate a total of twelve SPAs.

Chapter 2 Overview: Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers SIPs
SIP subslots begin their numbering with “0” and have a horizontal orientation, as shown in the “SIP and
SPA Product Overview” chapter of the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Aggregation Services Routers SIP and SPA Software Configuration Guide.
The Cisco ASR 1000 series SIP supports four subslots for the installation of SPAs. As shown in
Figure 2-2, the subslot locations are oriented as follows:
• SIP subslot 0—Top-left subslot
• SIP subslot 1—Top-right subslot
• SIP subslot 2—Bottom-left subslot
• SIP subslot 3—Bottom-right subslot
NoteIn the Cisco ASR 1002 Router, SIP subslot 0 is not available for SPA insertion. It is the slot that is used
for the integrated Route Processor and Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Figure 2-2 shows the SPA numbering sequence on a Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers SIP.

The SIP subslot numbering is indicated by a small numeric label beside the subslot on the faceplate.
Just as with the SIPs, some commands allow you to display information about the SPA itself, such as
show diag subslot. These commands require you to specify both the physical location of the SIP and
SPA in the format, slot/subslot, where:
• slot—Specifies the chassis slot number in the Cisco ASR 1000 Series Routers where the SIP is
installed.
• subslot—Specifies the slot of the SIP where the SPA is installed.
To display the operational status for a SPA installed in the SIP, enter the show platform command.

2-Port and 4-Port T3/E3 Clear Channel Serial SPA Interface Specifications
The framer processes incoming and outgoing T3 (cbit, m13/m23, and unframe) and E3 (g751, g832, and
unframe) frames. The framer operates at T3/E3 line rates (44.736Mbps /34.368 Mbps) depending on the
mode in which it is configured.
Packet data is transported with a user-configurable encapsulation (such as Point-to-Point Protocol [PPP]
or High-Level Data Link Control [HDLC]), and is mapped to T3 and E3 frames. The encapsulations add
transport overhead to the packet of data frames before transporting, and are stripped when a packet is
transported to the far end.
The T3/E3 SPA interface is compliant with ANSI and Telco standards. The interface also provides
support for Management Information Base (MIB) RFC 2496 and T1.231.
2-Port and 4-Port T3/E3 Clear Channel Serial SPA Cables and Connectors
The interface connectors on the 2-Port and 4-Port T3/E3 Clear Channel Serial SPA are 75-ohm coaxial
Siemax types, with one connector and cable for transmit (TX) and one for receive (RX).
The following cables can be used with the 2-Port and 4-Port T3/E3 Clear Channel Serial SPA. The cables
have BNC connectors on one end and the Siemax connectors on the other.
• CAB-T3E3-RF-BNC-M (T3 or E3 Cable, 1.0/2.3 RF to BNC-Male, 10 feet)
• CAB-T3E3-RF-BNC-F (T3 or E3 Cable, 1.0/2.3 RF to BNC-Female, 10 feet)
