Phoenix, I don't think JNPR's success solely rests on OC192, especially since their first two products, the M40 and M20, did not support OC192. Its only been since the introduction of the M160 that JNPR has an OC192 interface. Also, I agree its a fairly minor issue for Cisco to shoe-horn an OC192 interface into the GSR chassis, but that's not the real issue. How long will it take for Cisco to provide an OC192 that they can operate at line rate? Service providers are deploying OC192 in trunk applications where they will want to keep that interface running at maximum capability. JNPR's ability to operate their interfaces at or near line-rate is what I believe is largely giving JNPR their competitive advantage over Cisco. Just my $0.02, Lerxst
