Hi pigboy, here's what I've got in my notes on the Juniper M-40, it is in the 'carrier class gigabit group' vs 'the terabit group' & is available now. It does compete w/the Nbase/Xyplex OCR-8000, not the Areana 1 which is in the 'tereabit group' along w/Pluris, (uses massively parallel tech.) as does the NeoNetworks Streamprocessor, Avici which runs on 7 custome ASICs (NT owns 20% & also owns Shasta & Cambrian), Nexabit has Hitachi parts/investment, ect... The Juniper M-40 product was jointly developed & funded by Ericsson, LU, Nortel, Siemans, Newbridge, UUNet, and each gets product distribution rights for their investment, & can also include Juniper tech in their own products. The M-40 runs on 4 ASICs designed by IBM & runs the Junos operating system, which is proprietary, not open like the OCR-8000s Linux. Also in the 'carrier class gigabit group' you would have the Ascend GRF, Torrent IP9000, LU PacketStar, Nortel Versalar 15000, CSCO 12000, & NetCore Systems Everest. All for now... Regis
