Cisco Packet OC-3 Interface Processors

Extend Capabilities of Router-Based Networks to Meet Tomorrow's Requirements

With the new Packet OC-3 Interface Processor for Cisco 7500 and 7000/RSP series routers, Cisco offers industry-leading broadband data interface bandwidth to support the most demanding applications across both local-area and wide-area networking environments.
Operating at 155 Mbps, the Packet OC-3 interface provides the highest available interface bandwidth for packet-based traffic and is completely compatible with SONET and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) network facilities. By using standard packet protocols with efficient overhead structures, the Packet OC-3 Interface Processor maximizes data throughput and line utilization for expensive, high bandwidth facilities.
