AR1200 Series Enterprise Routers
Brochure
The AR1200 supports various interface cards, including Ethernet interface cards, E1/T1/PRI/VE1/VT1 interface
cards, synchronous/asynchronous interface cards, ADSL2+/G.SHDSL interface cards, FXS/FXO voice cards and ISDN
interface cards. These cards are classied into SIC (Smart Interface Card) cards and WSIC (Double-Width SIC) cards
depending on slot type. The following are the appearances and description of main interface cards.
The AR1200 uses the multi-core CPU and non-blocking switching structure and provides industry-leading system
performance, meeting network extension requirements and service development requirements of enterprises.
Multi-core CPU•
The multi-core CPU improves the speed of concurrent processing of data and voice services, which makes it
possible to deploy a large number of services.
Non-blocking switching•
Independent protocol management, service processing, and data switching, ensuring high performance and •
improving service reliability
Integrated routing and switching functions•
This feature improves the data switching efciency between interface cards and simplies device congurations
and maintenance.
Hot swappable interface cards and redundant components such as fan modules, ensuring service reliability and •
stability
