Cisco 901 Series Aggregation Services Routers (ASR) - Refurbished, Used, New
Cisco ASR 901 Series Aggregation Services Routers are compact 1RU cell-site and access routers for mobile backhaul, carrier Ethernet and remote aggregation. They combine Gigabit copper and SFP ports, and on the 6CZ models 10G SFP+ uplinks, with carrier features such as MPLS, hierarchical QoS, Ethernet OAM and network timing (SyncE and IEEE 1588) that keep cell sites synchronized. The chassis is hardened for unconditioned cabinets and comes in AC and DC powered versions. NetworkTigers sells ASR 901 routers, rack mount kits and related ASR power and fan parts refurbished, used and new. Every unit is tested before it ships so it works when it arrives.

Which ASR 901 do I need?
Read the part number from the end. The last letter is the power input: A for AC and D for the negative 48V DC feed used in most cell sites and telecom cabinets, so match it to the power you have at the site. The middle block tells you the port mix: 6CZ models add two 10G SFP+ uplinks to the eight RJ45 and eight SFP Gigabit ports, 12C models have the same Gigabit ports without 10G, and 4C models have fewer Gigabit ports for a small site. Choose 10G if the router aggregates several Gigabit cell sites or small cells back toward the core. If you need SyncE or IEEE 1588 timing to the radio, say so when you order and we will confirm the unit and its IOS version support it. Add A901-RCKMNT-19IN if the router is going in a standard 19 inch rack rather than a telecom frame.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between an ASR 901 and an ASR 920?
Both are compact access routers. The ASR 920 is the newer family with more port options and higher throughput; the ASR 901 is the earlier cell-site router and remains a cost-effective match for networks already built on it. We stock both, so give us the port count and uplink speed and we will suggest the better fit.
Does the ASR 901 have redundant power?
The DC models accept dual DC feeds for redundancy. The AC model has a single AC input. If you need two independent feeds, choose the D version.
Why are ASR 9010 fan trays in an ASR 901 collection?
They share the ASR name and are grouped here for buyers who search for ASR cooling parts. They fit the ASR 9010 chassis only, not an ASR 901.
