Cisco MEM-4700-32D 32MB Main Memory Upgrade

Overview

The MEM-4700-32D is a 32MB main memory upgrade module from Cisco, engineered for the 4700 series routers. This module adds valuable volatile memory to support larger routing tables, faster processing of network protocols and more stable operation under heavy traffic loads. It is a plug-in component that installs directly into the router's memory slot, providing a seamless upgrade path for existing Cisco infrastructure.

Key Features

• 32 megabytes of high-speed DRAM for expanded routing capacity
• Compatible with Cisco 4700 series routers that support memory expansion
• Easy installation with no tools required for most models
• Improves performance for MPLS, VPN, and QoS intensive applications
• Designed to meet Cisco quality and reliability standards

Technical Specifications

• Memory type: DDR SDRAM
• Capacity: 32 MB
• Voltage: 3.3 V
• Form factor: Standard memory module for Cisco 4700 series
• Operating temperature range: 0 to 70 degrees Celsius
• Dimensions: 5.0 cm x 2.5 cm x 0.5 cm (approx.)
• Interface: Direct slot connection, no external cables required

Applications

• Enterprise edge routers that need additional memory for larger routing tables
• Service provider networks deploying MPLS or advanced QoS policies
• Branch office routers handling VPN tunnels and secure traffic
• Network environments that require higher throughput and reduced latency
• Upgrading legacy Cisco 4700 routers to extend useful life and improve performance

By adding the MEM-4700-32D to your Cisco router, you gain the flexibility to handle more complex network topologies and higher traffic volumes without replacing the entire hardware platform. This upgrade is a cost-effective way to boost performance and ensure your network remains responsive and reliable.
