Cisco A99-RP3-SE is the Route Processor 3 for Service Edge in the ASR 9900/9000 family, providing the system control plane, timing, and management for IOS XR-based deployments. It is compatible with ASR-9904, ASR-9912, and ASR-9922 chassis. Hardware highlights include approximately 40 GB RAM, dual 32 GB SSDs with onboard flash, and a front panel with USB Type-A, console/aux, and two 10/100/1000 RJ-45 management ports, along with PTP support. It runs Cisco IOS XR, and because several third-generation ASR 9000 components have entered end-of-sale, you should confirm software release compatibility, availability, and support timelines for your specific configuration.
