By Juliana Ratner and Benjamin Wootliff

London, Feb. 25 (Bloomberg) -- Clayton, Dubilier & Rice is
leading a group of financial investors allied with Cisco Systems
Inc. who want to acquire control of Italtel SpA, which makes
network and telecommunications switching equipment for Telecom
Italia SpA, people familiar with the talks said....

Cisco's involvement is needed to help upgrade the products
produced by the unit of Italy's former telephone monopoly. The
company makes data lines that carry voice traffic and
asynchronous transfer mode, or ATM, switches, which transfer
large quantities of information like e-mail messages and other
data
