ASR1002X-20G-K9 Use Case
Secure Branch-to-Data Center Connectivity for Global Retail Expansion
In a multinational retail chain deploying 200+ stores across EMEA and APAC, IT architects leverage the ASR1002X-20G-K9-ASR1002-X 20G K9 AES LICS to establish encrypted IPsec tunnels from each branch to the corporate data center. Hardware-accelerated AES encryption delivers consistent 20 Gbps throughput per tunnel, ensuring PCI-DSS compliance for credit card transactions. The outcome: sub-millisecond latency, end-to-end data integrity, and rapid onboarding of new locations without performance degradation.
High-Performance Encrypted Data Center Interconnect for Financial Services
A global bank requires ultra-secure, low-latency links between its New York and London trading floors. Deploying the ASR1002X-20G-K9 with AES LICS, network engineers configure 20 Gbps encrypted GRE tunnels over MPLS to safeguard FIX protocol traffic. The solution achieves wire-speed encryption, SLA-backed availability, and zero packet loss under peak load, enabling real-time market data replication and regulatory compliance with GDPR and SOX.
Scalable SD-WAN Backbone for Cloud-First Enterprises
An enterprise IT team adopts a cloud-first strategy, requiring secure, high-throughput links to AWS and Azure. By integrating ASR1002X-20G-K9-ASR1002-X 20G K9 AES LICS routers as SD-WAN hubs, they orchestrate policy-based AES-256 IPsec tunnels over dual 10 GbE uplinks. This architecture delivers 20 Gbps of encrypted bandwidth per site, automated failover, and centralized zero-touch provisioning—driving 35% reduction in operational costs and 4× faster cloud application performance.
