This Linux router offers an 18-slot chassis with a 40Gbps routing fabric, frame and cell scheduling, and high-speed ASICs for throughput of up to 26 million packets per second. Optional modules provide a flexible selection of port density and speed with 128 10/100 Ethernet ports, 64 OC-12 ports, or 32 1Gbps ports. The OSR8040 includes support for QoS, security features, policy-based management, SNMP, RMON, VLANS, IP CIDR, and clustering. The strength, flexibility, and scalability of an open architecture gives OSR8040 users basic block functions and programmable interfaces to control functions such as the unit's programmable Packet Flow Processors for smart networking applications.
