The Edge-Core AS7535-28XB CSR440 is an 800G ONIE cell site router designed for 5G mobile xHaul networks. This temperature-hardened platform offers a combination of 1/10/25 Gbps, 50/100 Gbps, and 100/400 Gbps interfaces, utilizing powerful Qumran family merchant silicon and an Intel Xeon x86 processor with hyper-threading technology for optimized performance in service provider access and aggregation networks.
The CSR440 operates at a wide temperature range of -40˚C to 65˚C and includes redundant, hot-swappable power modules and 5+1 high-efficiency modular fans for high availability and easy maintenance in mission-critical applications. It is an ideal choice for current LTE and emerging 5G mobile xhaul network solutions. Pre-installed with ONIE (Open Network Install Environment), the CSR440 provides flexibility for users to choose their preferred Network Operating System (NOS) integration.
Edge-Core CSR series overview
Edge-Core’s CSR series open cell site routers are designed with high port density and speeds for 5G networks, and come in a compact and efficient design that enables easy deployment at cell sites. They support Layer 2, Layer 3, and MPLS features, along with time synchronization protocols such as IEEE1588v2 and Synchronous Ethernet with Class C accuracy. Additionally, the CSR series routers are based on the latest generation chipset that provide an 802.1CM Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) interface, supporting SRv6 technology and eCPRI encapsulation for upcoming xHaul applications and deployments.
