1.2 TOE Overview
The Cisco Aggregation Services Router (ASR) 901 Series TOE is a compact cell-site Radio
Access Network (RAN) and Ethernet access routers that transparently and efficiently transports
cell-site voice, data, and signaling traffic over IP using traditional T1/E1 circuits, including
leased line, microwave, and satellite.
The RAN transport manages the backhaul traffic (both voice and data) from the cell site base
transceiver stations (BTSs) to aggregation nodes and to base station controllers (BSCs), between
BSCs, and between the BSC and an associated mobile switching center (MSC).
