Cisco 10000 ESR Now Supports T1, E1 and ATM Leased Line Aggregation- Offering Unmatched Density and Enhanced IP Services for Service Providers Worldwide
SAN JOSE, Calif., October 26, 2000 - Cisco Systems, Inc., the worldwide leader in networking for the Internet, today announced the global launch of the Cisco 10000 Edge Service Router (Cisco 10000 ESR). The Cisco 10000 ESR addresses the ever-increasing demand for high density, service rich networks while ensuring performance. Through its advanced new Channelized STM1 functionality the Cisco 10000 ESR supports industry leading E1 leased line aggregation density. In addition, the company is also announcing the availability of a new OC12 ATM module to support customer ATM connectivity requirements worldwide.
The Cisco 10000 ESR is a carrier-class product for service providers deploying high-density T1 or E1 connections along with value added IP services. The highly scalable router is designed specifically to provide leased line aggregation at the edge of a service provider's core network. By delivering the industries highest E1 density in a compact, scalable footprint, the Cisco 10000 ESR enables service providers to lower operational costs. Through its advanced service support, enabled by Cisco's IOS. (Internetworking Operating System), service providers can offer customers value-added services such as virtual private networks, high security and traffic prioritization to generate revenue and differentiate leased line services.
"With the global launch of the Cisco10000 ESR, incorporating the Channelized STM1, Cisco offers service providers a solution allowing them to address the exponential growth in the number of Internet users and in the demand for services," said Francisco Fuentes, Senior Manager, IP Carrier Group, Cisco Systems EMEA.

About Cisco 10000 Edge Service Router
The Cisco 10000 ESR is based on Cisco's revolutionary Parallel eXpress Forwarding (PXF) architecture. PXF utilizes Cisco's latest parallel processing technology to deliver wire speed performance for a broad set of Cisco IOS advanced IP services. The combination of a rich IOS feature set and PXF performance enables ISPs to increase revenues by deploying value-added services such as Premium Internet Access to customers in volume. The highly-scalable router delivers maximum expandability to handle growing customer populations and expanded service offerings. In addition, the Cisco 10000 ESR and its breakthrough architecture have been designed for maximum reliability and availability to support customers' ever-increasing dependence on network-based services.
The Channelized STM1 module adds E1/DS0 connectivity to the already impressive list of interfaces supported by the Cisco 10000 ESR, including Channelized T3 and Channelized OC12 connections. The Channelized STM1 E1/DS0 module will be capable of supporting a staggering 9072 E1 connections per seven foot rack. And the Cisco OC12 ATM module now offers service providers the choice to aggregate these high density E1 circuits into their ATM core network. Building on the success of this platform in the US, these two new interfaces will now allow service providers worldwide the capability to offer IP services --without sacrificing performance.
