▄ Cisco ASR 5000 Series Product Overview 
Product Description 
The Cisco® ASR 5000 Chassis provides 3GPP mobile operators with a flexible solution that functions as a Packet Data 
Gateway/Tunnel Termination Gateway (PDG/TTG) in 3G UMTS wireless data networks. The PDG/TTG consists of 
new software for the ASR 5000. 
 
The PDG/TTG enables mobile operators to provide Fixed Mobile Convergence (FMC) services to subscribers with 
dual-mode handsets and dual-mode access cards via WiFi access points. The PDG/TTG makes it possible for operators 
to provide secure access to the operator‘s 3G network from a non-secure network, reduce the load on the macro wireless 
network, enhance in-building wireless coverage, and make use of existing backhaul infrastructure to reduce the cost of 
carrying wireless calls. 
The TTG is a network element that enables PDG functionality for existing GGSN deployments. The TTG and a subset 
of existing GGSN functions work together to provide PDG functionality to the subscriber UEs in the WLAN.
