Description
The Cisco CBR-2X100G-PIC is a high-performance interface card designed for the Cisco cBR-8 Converged Broadband Router, enabling high-capacity data transmission with two 100-Gigabit Ethernet ports. Built for service providers and large-scale deployments, this PIC (Physical Interface Card) enhances the router’s uplink capabilities, supporting dense traffic loads and future-ready broadband services. Its modular design allows for seamless integration into existing cBR-8 chassis, making it a cost-effective upgrade option for expanding network throughput. The card is engineered with carrier-grade reliability and low latency, suitable for DOCSIS 3.1 and beyond.
Technically, the CBR-2X100G-PIC supports QSFP28 transceivers, offering flexibility in optical connectivity and long-reach transmission. It operates over standard Ethernet protocols, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network infrastructures. With dual 100GE ports, it provides a combined throughput of 200 Gbps, making it ideal for high-bandwidth aggregation and core routing tasks. This used component is a practical choice for operators seeking to scale their networks without the cost of new hardware.
