Hey Jeff-- This year I installed a video WAN comprised of several 3845 routers with the NM-1T3/E3 for point to point DS3s (that is all, nothing else). The 3845 routers list at $13,000 and the network module at $8,500. You should do yourself and your firm a favor and look at business class Ethernet. DS3s are so expensive and sometimes a major pain in the butt.
For business class Ethernet, you most major carriers can offer you something. Typically, fiber is pulled to your NetPOP and a switch is installed, your hand-off is a switch port. The downside is the cost of delivering fiber to your building which can often be quite prohibitive unless you can amortize that cost over a number of years. (Unfortunately, that may not be possible since the deliverable may not be considered a product to your accounting department.) cjw _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
