Cisco FLSA1-HX-2X10GE 2-Port 10GE License for ASR1000-HX Routers

Brand:

Cisco FLSA1-HX-2X10GE is a built-in 10 Gigabit Ethernet two-port activation license for compatible Cisco ASR1000-HX routers, providing a software-based path to additional 10GE interface capacity.

OVERVIEW

  • Cisco FLSA1-HX-2X10GE is a software activation license for enabling two built-in 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports on compatible ASR1000-HX platforms, specifically the ASR1002-HX and ASR1001-HX. Its primary purpose is to expand available high-speed interface capacity while allowing organizations to retain their existing router hardware. Compared with the FLSA1-HX-2X1GE option, this SKU activates 10GE rather than 1GE connectivity, making it more appropriate for higher-bandwidth WAN, aggregation and data-center-edge requirements. For enterprise IT, service providers and network operators, the license supports incremental infrastructure expansion and can improve the ROI of an installed ASR1000-HX platform by delaying hardware replacement where additional 10GE capacity is the primary requirement. Cisco's current documentation identifies the product as an end-of-sale license, so buyers should validate availability and lifecycle requirements before procurement. 

USE CASES

  • ASR1001-HX deployments requiring additional 10GE interface capacity
  • ASR1002-HX deployments requiring additional 10GE interface capacity
  • Enterprise WAN bandwidth expansion
  • Data-center edge network upgrades
  • High-speed enterprise aggregation environments
  • Service-provider network interface expansion
  • Network modernization without immediate router replacement
  • Pay-as-you-grow infrastructure expansion
  • Lifecycle extension of existing ASR1000-HX investments
  • Incremental connectivity expansion for established Cisco routing environments

WHY CHOOSE THIS PRODUCT?

  • Organizations choose Cisco FLSA1-HX-2X10GE when an installed ASR1001-HX or ASR1002-HX requires additional 10GE interface capacity without replacing the complete router platform. Its key advantage is targeted expansion: the license activates two built-in 10GE ports, whereas the related FLSA1-HX-2X1GE license provides two 1GE ports. This makes the 10GE option better suited to bandwidth-intensive WAN, aggregation and data-center-edge requirements. From a procurement perspective, it can support staged capacity growth and protect existing infrastructure investment when the compatible router remains operationally suitable. However, because Cisco lists the FLSA1-HX-2X10GE among affected end-of-sale products, buyers should verify current supply, licensing entitlement, support coverage and migration requirements before placing a new order.
