The Cisco Route Switch Processor 16 (RSP16) is a high-performance control processor engineered for use in the Cisco router platform. This component plays a crucial role in facilitating reliable data processing and routing by managing both the control and data planes within Cisco systems. Specifically designed for large-scale routing applications, the RSP16 is suitable for network environments that demand resilient and scalable infrastructure. It provides the processing power necessary to manage high-density 10GbE and 40GbE interfaces, making it an ideal component for enterprise networks and large data centres.
The RSP16 features advanced forwarding capabilities along with robust support for diverse routing protocols, including OSPF and BGP, ensuring efficient management of complex routing schemes. It is fully compatible with modular Cisco routers, offering seamless scalability to meet the growing needs of modern networks. The hardware uses dual-core processors to enhance performance, ensuring reliable network operations even under heavy traffic conditions. Additionally, the RSP16 supports QoS (Quality of Service) and sophisticated traffic management features, allowing priority-based traffic regulation and improved bandwidth management.
In terms of redundancy, the RSP16 is designed to be fully redundant, supporting hot-swappable configurations, which minimises downtime in critical network services. This ensures continuous network availability, especially within mission-critical applications. Furthermore, the processor also facilitates advanced security protocols, including IPSec and MACsec, for secure data transmission across the network.
