Cisco NCS 5001
Cisco NCS 5001 Overview
The Cisco NCS 5001 router is an extension to Cisco's routing platform portfolio enabling Service Providers
and MPLS enabled data center architectures to offer elastic networks with improved business agility and
simplified operations to deliver high-bandwidth mobile, video, and cloud services.
It can also operate as an extension shelf of Cisco ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Routers using
Network Virtualization (nV) technology, consolidating multiple layers in the network and dramatically reducing
operational costs.
The Cisco NCS 5001 router is a small form factor dense GE/10GE aggregation systems. Powered by industry
leading routing operation system, IOS-XR, the system also offers rich functions such as third party application
hosting, machine-to-machine interface, telemetry and flexible package delivery.

Ports
Cisco NCS 5001 router consists of the following ports:
• 40 x One GE/10GE SFP+ ports
• 16 x Regular 10G SFP+ Ports
• 24 x DWDM and ZR Capable 10G SFP+ Ports (Purple in color)
• 4 x 100G QSFP28 ports (Light Green in color)
Features
The Cisco NCS 5001 router has the following features:
• Two 1+1 redundant, hot-swappable power supplies, which provide port side intake or exhaust for cooling
• Two 1+1 redundant, hot-swappable fan modules, which provide port side intake or exhaust for cooling
• A management and console interface are on the port (front) side of the router whereas the USB interface
on the fan (back) side of the router.
Power Supply
The Cisco NCS 5001 chassis has slots for two 1+1 redundant power supplies. Power supply options need to
be configured with the base chassis. A minimum of one power supply is required for normal operation. The
following table lists the power supplies that are configurable with the Cisco NCS 5001 router.

Fan Modules
The Cisco NCS 5001 chassis has slots for two 1+1 redundant fan modules. The fan modules are hot-swappable.
Fan modules operate in an 1+1 redundancy mode. Fan options need to be configured with the base chassis.
The Cisco NCS 5001 system supports both forward and reverse airflow. The system can work with a single
fan failure. More than one fan failure leads to system shutdown. The following table lists the fan modules
that are configurable with the Cisco NCS 5001 router.
