Latest hw version (V600R300) of NE40 should support 200G per slot (400G ready) and 16x10G LCs (only on X8, X16). I don't know the exact over-subscription factor (16x10G LCs probably have 100G fabric), so i'm a little bit sceptical about all these numbers.
What worries me most is the low memory options (2G and 4G).

ASR9k is currently at 160G (or 184G?) per slot (with dual RSPs) and 16x10G LCs (~120G fabric), but is 360G ready (new RSP/LCs are coming)

We are also evaluating both platforms (ASR9k is already in our production 
network).
Besides some issues related to IOS-XR, other issues include limited functionality under BVIs and limit of 1,5G traffic mirroring on 10G ports. Keep in mind that ASR1k might be a better choice if you are looking for fewer 10G ports and more memory.

I was checking the NE40 document, quote "The NE40E-X3 has three LPU slots. Each 
slot supports 40-Gbit/s upstream
traffic and 40-Gbit/s downstream traffic. The switching capacity is
1.08Tbit/s", you can ask the marketing team to give you the product 
documentation, and regarding the 8x10G LPU as the document says the router doesn't 
support, the maximum is 4x10G XFP.


regards.

We are using the RSP720 and 3CXLs. Both have performance issues when dealing 
with multiple BGP sessions, When one of the full bgp peer flaps or when there 
is a link flap the other routing protocols start to flap as well. I'll try to 
tweak the timers in the mean time. Usually the CPU usage is around 70%.

Hi Manuel,

What are the supervisor engines that you are using on the 7600 routers.

Hi,
We've been in the same situation, a small note: per slot
capacity of the ASR9K is 320G it takes 40G and 100G SPAs while for NE40E-X3 is
40G, almost the same as Cisco's 7600.

Hi

We are currently looking for alternatives to upgrade cisco 76XX  routers and
we are comparing Huawei NE40E-X3 vs Cisco ASR9K. I was wondering if someone
can share their experience with Huawey routers as Core MPLS routers.

Any advice would be greatly
appreciated
Thanks
