The long haul 40 Gig capability of the CRS-1 is documented at 1000 kilometers before regeneration. Last I looked no major competitor doing that. Rumor has it this distance may be set to double real soon…all this and port density too…I think I need to buy more Cisco (and stock in the local power companies cause these units need a lot of juice to run).

Traditionally Cisco hasn’t had much success in the Backbone Network arena when you compare with Nortel or/and Alcatel/Lucent. But for the past couple of years It has been lucrative again, as service providers plan on deploying more services for end users.

Traditionally Cisco doesn’t have much success in the Network Backbone’s arena, comparing to Nortel and/or Alcatel-Lucent.
