Cisco ADV-CA-400G-RTU-2 400G Right-to-Use for Cisco 8000

Expand Cisco 8000 Series capacity with a 400G right-to-use license designed for core and aggregation environments that need more throughput without a hardware refresh. This entitlement activates advanced 400G capability on supported platforms, helping teams scale uplinks, backbone paths, and aggregation tiers as traffic increases. For infrastructure teams, the value is straightforward: preserve capital, reduce procurement friction, and keep the network aligned to demand. Instead of buying a larger box for a single capacity step, you license the capability you need on the platform already in service. That makes this model a strong fit for staged rollouts, budget-controlled upgrades, and environments where port speed is tied to service growth. Cisco licensing is often chosen when operational consistency matters as much as raw performance. This right-to-use model fits that pattern: it is a clean way to extend platform capability while keeping the deployment anchored to the Cisco 8000 Series architecture. For organizations planning around backbone modernization, aggregation expansion, or higher-speed interconnects, it provides a precise path to 400G enablement.
