Cisco 7606

Cisco 7606 ... requirements of both enterprises and service providers. The Cisco 7606 delivers both, providing a forwarding rate of 30 Mpps, and 160-Gbps total throughput while delivering high-touch, hardware-accelerated IP services via Cisco Parallel Express Forwarding (PXF) IP services processor technology.

One of the Cisco 7600 Series Internet routers, the Cisco 7606 delivers optical LAN, WAN, and metropolitan-area network (MAN) networking at the network edge and in the Internet data center (IDC). The Cisco 7606 enables service providers to offer high-value, differentiated services, and enterprises to deploy the advanced network infrastructure necessary to succeed in high-traffic environments. Providing performance and reliability, the Cisco 7606 offers 96 Mpps in distributed forwarding, with options for redundant route processors and power supplies. The inclusion of two Gigabit Ethernet ports on the Cisco Supervisor 2 with the multilayer switch feature card 2 (MSFC-2) route processor used in the Cisco 7606 eliminates the need to use a line-card slot for uplink ports. The result of this design is more efficient use of available line-card slots and increased deployment flexibility. Four Gigabit Ethernet ports are available for use in dual-route processor configurations.
