Cisco bought a company called Cerent several months back. I was given a tour
of a Nextlink ( now X0, after their purchase of Concentric ) pop recently.
Full of Cerent stuff, and the engineer there waxed on and on about how great
it was. All fiber connections. Carrier class. If memory servers, these
suckers weren't more than 12 inches high? So Cisco isn't standing still in
this market space. Can't find much on the Cisco site about the product
line.

Absolutely. The Juniper M20, M40, and M160 Internet Backbone Routers
are sometimes chosen instead of the Cisco 12000 Series. Press reports
say that Juniper has gained some of the market share at Cisco's expense
in this area. They have just released the smaller M5 and M10.
No doubt Cisco are well aware, and even as we speak steps are being
taken to ensure that Cisco regain their lost ground and reaffirm
themselves as Masters of the Universe ;-)
