Avici says: "We have a scalability advantage," says Panditi. "We can add more density to the network while using less power. Customers are very focused these days on finding the best solutions, including finding ways to reduce power [consumption]." Merrill Lynch says: "Basically, what Avici has done is increase the number of ports per square foot, which is a measure of how much money one of their customers can make," says Wilson, of Merrill Lynch. "But I do have concerns about whether theirs will be the best solution over time, or whether others will emerge." The datasheets read: Avici TSR Cisco 12416 Juniper M160 OC-48 slots 80* 60 64** OC-192 slots 20* 15 16 Max DC Power 5500W 4200W 5200W Watts/192 port 275W 280W 325W Size 85.5x26x35.5 72x19x24 35x19x29 in^2/192 port 46 30 34 * Actually, the TSR datasheet page 8 says 40 OC-48 ports per system. I believe that is out-of-date since page 10 indicates there are now 2-port TSR OC-48 modules. As I understand it, the OC-192 modules require 2 slots. ** The M160 numbers are for 1 rack (2 systems). avici.com cisco.com juniper.net
