Which three options are chassis variations of the NCS 4000 family? (Choose three.)

The correct answer is A. NCS 4016 C. NCS 4009 D. NCS 4001. Three chassis variants make up the NCS 4000 family: the NCS 4016 (16-slot chassis), NCS 4009 (9-slot chassis), and NCS 4001 (single-slot/compact chassis) - options A, C, and D. These three cover the full range of deployment scales within the NCS 4000 platform, from small edge…

Explanation

Three chassis variants make up the NCS 4000 family: the NCS 4016 (16-slot chassis), NCS 4009 (9-slot chassis), and NCS 4001 (single-slot/compact chassis) - options A, C, and D. These three cover the full range of deployment scales within the NCS 4000 platform, from small edge deployments (4001) to large core configurations (4016).

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • B (NCS 4006): No 6-slot variant exists in the NCS 4000 family - this number was fabricated to test recognition.
  • E (NCS 4022): Similarly, a 22-slot NCS 4000 chassis does not exist in Cisco's product lineup.
  • F (NCS 5016): The "5016" belongs to the NCS 5000 series, a different product family - the prefix change from 4xxx to 5xxx is the giveaway.

Memory tip: Focus on the suffix numbers - the NCS 4000 family uses 01, 09, and 16 as slot counts (1, 9, 16). Any option with a number outside that set (6, 22) or a different family prefix (5xxx) is a distractor.
