Hi,
I am happy to announce a new addition to Cisco ASR920 Family, ASR-920-12SZ-IM (uPOE, IPsec, NAT/PAT & GNSS Support)- Next Gen CELL SITE ROUTER,  which will start shipping end of August 2015. I have tried to summarize all the details about new and shipping ASR920. Sorry about the long email but it will give everyone good overview of the platform, features, licensing & scale. Hope it helps.
