For an ASR9906 to add 4x port 100G here is the GPL pricing:
Part Number Description Unit List Price
A99-4HG-FLEX-TR= ASR 9900 400GE Packet Transport Combo Line Card -
5th Gen 271,493.78
CON-SNT-A994HGFT SNTC-8X5XNBD ASR 9900 400GE Packet Transport Combo
Li 87,210.25
QSFP-100G-LR4-S 100GBASE LR4 QSFP Transceiver, LC, 10km over SMF
35,388.85
$400K GPL with 8x5xNBD support. Price for LR4 is $35K - so the $400K
pricing is just for 1x LR4. Very pricey.
Which is why we just focus on Juniper and Arista right now. Cisco are
still living in the pre-Covid era. Those good ol' days are gone, and
unless you have the clout to command proper discounts from Cisco, you
are losing out on better efficiencies with other vendors.
