Review: The Cisco CRS-3 Carrier Routing System
Cisco’s new CRS-3 Carrier Routing System (CRS) claims to be the basis for the future of the internet, as well as setting the pace for the future of mobile devices.
The CRS-3 offers 12 times the traffic capacity of its rivals. This will allow for faster broadband communication and will open up new opportunities for service providers, in terms of new revenue streams.
The CRS-3 has three times the capacity of the previous model, the CRS-1, with the possibilities of 322 terabits per second. With such speed, you could stream every video ever made in less than four minutes, or even allow every person in China to make simultaneous video calls.
Cisco has so much faith in their new carrier routing system that they have invested over one and a half billion dollars into it. This is a great indicator of their commitment and confidence in the product.
Since video applications are changing Internet traffic patterns, Cisco’s CRS-3 is linked with all Cisco Nextus products as well as with Cisco Unified Computing (UCS), which will create unified service delivery as well as having the capability of a Network Positioning System (NPS).
This routing system offers notable power savings: 60 percent less power consumption than its competitors. For existing CRS-1 users, the new model also offers you unique expenditure savings and investments.
The device also contains the QuantumFlow Array Processor, which allows six chips to function as one. This power offers unrivalled processing power compared to Cisco’s competitors.
So Internet users now have something to smile about as the future is here and it will just a matter of how fast the rest of the software and hardware world can catch up.
One last thing, I was speaking to my brother who works in finance and he reckons that there is massive return in buying stocks for home heating oil. He is one of those types of people who is of the opinion that America is trying to seize the world by taking over the Middle East. I must say I am getting fairly fed-up of the fact that everyone seems to have the same rationalization on this, can someone please suggest another answer to this fight we seem to keep having.
