Cisco NCS 4216 Overview
The Cisco NCS 4216 is a seven-rack unit router that belongs to the Cisco NCS 4200 family of routers. This
router complements Cisco's offerings for IP RAN solutions for the GSM, UMTS, LTE, and CDMA. Given
its form-factor, interface types and GigabitEthernet density the Cisco NCS 4216 can also be positioned as
a Carrier Ethernet aggregation platform.
The Cisco NCS 4216 is a cost optimized, fully redundant, centralized forwarding, extended temperature,
and flexible pre-aggregation router.

Cisco NCS 4216 Features
The key feature of the Cisco NCS 4216 is to increase per platform and rack-unit interface density, especially
when combining multiple interface types such as Gigabit Ethernet (GE), TDM, 10GE, 40GE and 100GE.
The Cisco NCS 4216 has the following hardware features:
• A large service scale and high throughput (400G) Route Switch Processors (RSP)—NCS4216-RSP
• One-port 100GE Interface Module (NCS4200-1H-PK)
• Two-port 40GE Interface Module (NCS4200-2Q-P)
• Eight-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet Interface Module (8X10GE) (NCS4200-8T-PS)
• SFP Combo IM—Eight-port Gigabit Ethernet (8X1GE) + One-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet (1X10GE)
• OC-192 Interface Module with 8-port Low Rate CEM Interface Module (10G HO / 10G LO)
• 48 T1/E1 TDM Interface Module (48XT1/E1) (NCS4200-48T1E1-CE)
• 48 T3/E3 TDM Interface Module (48XT3/E3) (NCS4200-48T3E3-CE)
• 900 Watt PSUs to power the new RSP modules

Page 12: Rsp Redundancy
RSP Modules RSP Redundancy The Cisco NCS 4216 chassis includes two RSP slots to allow for redundant RSPs. When the router uses redundant RSPs, one RSP operates in the active mode and the other operates in the hot standby mode. Removal or failure of the active RSP results in an automatic switchover to the standby RSP. -
