Series
Internet Router
The Cisco 7600 Series Internet Router delivers high-performance wide- and
metropolitan-area network (WAN and MAN) capabilities with high-touch IP services
at the network edge. Now, service providers (SPs) and enterprises can "service
enable" their networks at optical speeds, providing competitive advantage and
service differentiation to the SP and high-speed connectivity and link usage
efficiency to the enterprise. The Cisco 7600 Series helps SPs break through service
and bandwidth barriers to increase new revenue and profits.
Cisco 7600 Series Internet Router Chassis
The Cisco 7600 Series provides customers the flexibility of three different form factors
through 3-slot, 6-slot and 9-slot chassis. As one of the most scalable systems in the industry,
each chassis offers the ability to bring DS0 to OC-48 WAN connectivity, and 10-Mbps
Ethernet to 10-Gigabit Ethernet LAN connectivity to metropolitan aggregation, WAN edge
aggregation, and enterprise networking applications (see Tables 1 and 2).

    Cisco 7600 Series Internet Router All contents are Copyright © 1992–2002 Cisco Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. Important Notices and Privacy Statement. The Cisco 7600 Series Internet Router delivers high-performance wide- and metropolitan-area network (WAN and MAN) capabilities with high-touch IP services at the network edge.
  • Page 2 • MPLS virtual private network (VPN) Series Cisco 7600 Applications The Cisco 7600 is ideally positioned for deployment at the network edge—both in service provider and enterprise environments. Cisco 7600 Service Provider Solutions Service providers require networking platforms that scale from DS0 to OC-48c and beyond. They must also support a consistent set of high-performance features across this broad range of speeds.
  • Page 3 Gigabit Ethernet connections when customers do not have enough current traffic to justify a full Gigabit Ethernet, but may in the future. The Cisco 7600 also offers a range of choices for either Layer 2 or 3 metropolitan services based on either MPLS or traditional Ethernet forwarding schemes.
  • Page 4 Cisco 7600 offers the ability to connect database and application servers with Gigabit and Fast Ethernet all in the same chassis as well as offering a migration path for current Cisco 7200 and 7500 customers via the FlexWAN module. Utilizing a single, standardized platform, enterprises can benefit from the simplicity of network design and operational cost savings.
  • Page 5 PXF IP service processors to enable IP services at 6 Mpps. The Cisco 7609 has the option to use a 256-Gbps SFM or a 32-Gbps bus that provides centralized switching performance of 30 or 15 Mpps, respectively. When the SFM is used, the Cisco 7609 can also support distributed switching with performance up to 168 Mpps by using the Catalyst 6500 16-port Gigabit Ethernet LAN card, which is powered by the Distributed Forwarding Card (DFC) and the SFM.
  • Page 6 Column High-Speed Optical Connectivity Cisco offers a wide range of OSMs for the Cisco 7600 Series to meet various interface scalability requirements and allow for high-performance IP service applications. These OSMs provide Internet connectivity at optical speed from OC-3 all the way to OC-48. Each OSM has two PXF processors on board and provides up to 6-Mpps IP services performance.
  • Page 7 In addition to OSMs, the Cisco 7600 incorporates the FlexWAN module. The FlexWAN module enables the Cisco 7600 to use most of the port adapters shared with the Cisco 7200 and 7500, thus providing great investment protection in Cisco interfaces. FlexWAN allows the Cisco 7600 to aggregate low-speed traffic from n x DS0 to OC-3, thus complementing the high-speed interfaces offered by OSMs.
