[c-nsp] 32 x 100G box

[Phil Bedard]

As Tom mentioned,

There are a number of platforms.

There is the somewhat older J+ NCS nodes like the 55A1-36H which is 36x100GE QSFP28.

There is the 8000 series which has a number of models that would fit like the 8201-32FH and newer 8201-24H8FH (24x100G, 8x400G).

There is also a new NCS node based on J2C+ , the NCS-57D2-18DD which can support 66x100G or 18x400G.  There is an older J2 1RU router which is the NCS-57B1-6D-24H , with 24x100G and 6x400G ports.

Thanks,
Phil

A very quick browse reveals at least two candidates:

55A1-SE:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/routers/network-convergence-system-5500-series/datasheet-c78-739905.html
8101-32H:
https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/routers/8000-series-routers/datasheet-c78-742571.html#Cisco8100Series

Notably the first is Broadcom, the second is Cisco's Spitfire.
