digging through my notes from the service provider partner vt meeting from last summer: (*) ncs4200 positioned as tdm-to-ethernet conversion box to ease the movement from legacy networks to ethernet (*) not considered a replacement for legacy dacs —- cost per port too high (*) initial market meant to be larger carriers — “ncs” moniker helps with positioning in transport teams (*) initial release will have parity with asr900-series (903/907/920) — including running ios-xe (*) movement towards ios-xr expected sometime within 18 months of platform release; not in “ec” yet (*) module parity between ncs4200 and asr900s at fcs (*) modules may be developed in either platform that may not necessarily be absorbed into the other (think b/u split here) thats all i could find. we’re taking specific interest in this platform — as we’re deploying within several customer networks. q. -- quinn snyder | snyd...@gmail.com
