Network Communications are expanding rapidly, and this is changing the way we all work, live and entertain. We are now truly able to stay connected virtually anywhere and at anytime. The market and its associated technological advancements are moving quickly and companies need to stay ahead of the curve to be able to satisfy the demand for speed and data space.
In order to provide the ultra-fast data speeds necessary to stay ahead of users’ rapidly growing online video demands and to set the foundation for a whole new way of networking, Cisco unveiled a new Internet technology that is simply futuristic. Known as “CRS-3,”A� this new network routing system will be able to offer downloads of up to 322 Terabits per second, according to the company. To give an example, in Cisco terms, the router will be able to download the entire printed collection of the Library of Congress in 1 second and stream every movie ever created in less than 4 minutes.
Cisco said the CRS-3 will triple the speed of its predecessor, the CRS-1, and it will offer speeds of up to 12-times faster than the next fastest product on the market. The company invested $1.6 billion in the technology and will begin selling the routers at $90,000.
The foundation for the CRS-3 was based on rapid proliferation of smart-phones and the growing popularity of advanced applications that circle around how mobile providers will be responding to this change in service types and rising expectations of their users.
Additionally, the business and technical landscape is changing dramatically – expanding competition, shift in revenue streams, next gen. broadband technology deployments and move to all-IP architecture. These forces require mobile operators to build networks in new, “smarter” ways in order to be prepared to meet future demand.
Even though some say that the expansion of those speeds and network capacity are not necessary at the moment, many argued that the fast-growing media usage on mobile phones, mobile data and need for high-bandwidth mobile applications is exploding and will ultimately demand it.
The bottom line is that even if you do not require such a vast technological breakthrough at the moment, Cisco is definitely the company, one should look at, when considering what brand of networking to use. Satisfaction is guaranteed and you can be sure you are always staying ahead of the curve even with older models, since they are always designed and manufactured to meet prospective needs.
