36170 and other platforms

Mory has a reason to make these sweeping statements and
he is proud of his achievements as well. Ascend has done
extremely well.

36170 started off much earlier than competitors' ATM produce
therefore many more services like FR, LanEmul., TDM I/Fs
etc. are available on this platform, plus the Network
and Service management portfolio. Ascend's platform may have
latest chipsets but that doesn't mean 36170 is behind, NN
probably has newer releases of 36170 based on this latest
stuff. NN has a full end-to-end "Carrier class" solution
with 36190 and 36170 platforms and 46xxx series TMN based
NM/ServiceManagement products.

Ascend platform architecture is more geared towards ISP
class solutions i.e. take traffic from RemoteConcentrtor
and speed it along the ATM fabric for interconnection.

Newbridge definitely has more experience in ATM Carrier
class solutions and I would rate them ahead of the pack.
Newbridge was ahead of time in ATM delivery but has not
yet (seemingly) cashed on this advantage. Ascend and Cisco
are catching up.
