The Cisco ASR1000 18X1GE EPA is an Enhanced Port Adapter for the ASR1000 Series that provides 18 Gigabit Ethernet ports in a single-module form factor.
The EPA-18X1GE= is compatible with Cisco ASR1000, ASR1001, ASR1002, ASR1004, and ASR1006 Series routers running Cisco IOS XE.
The adapter delivers 18 independent 1-Gbps Ethernet ports for high-density WAN and LAN connectivity.
The EPA-18X1GE= supports up to 64 Gbps of total bidirectional forwarding capacity.
Yes, the module is SFP-compatible and supports Cisco GLC-SX, GLC-LX, GLC-ZX and other MSA-compliant transceivers.
Yes, the Enhanced Port Adapter is hot-swappable for non-disruptive upgrades and maintenance.
Cisco IOS XE version 3.3.0S or later is required to fully support the EPA-18X1GE= features and performance.
Power down the ASR1000, slide the EPA into the adapter slot until it clicks, secure the captive screws, power up, and verify via CLI.
It is ideal for high-density gigabit WAN aggregation, branch termination, and multiservice edge deployments.
Typical power consumption is approximately 35 W under full load.
The adapter occupies one ASR1000 slot and measures 200 mm x 48 mm x 360 mm (W x H x D).
Use the IOS XE CLI: enter global config mode, define interfaces (interface GigabitEthernet0/x), assign IP addresses, and enable routing.
