what can you do with 322Tbps? Cisco systems says it's enough bandwidth to allow every person in china to make video call - simultaneously. And if that's something you want to do, Cisco says it now has hardware capable of task.
The company's newest large-scale core router, the CRS-3, is capable of handling such a speed, which Cisco said is 12 times as fast as its closest competitor and the three times the speed of its predecessor. it has invested $1.6 billions in the product's design and engendering.
The CRS-3, is the product that Cisco last month said would " forever change the internet and its impact on consumers ,businesses and governments."
CRS stands for "Carrier Routing System" a reference to the devices use by large telecom provider.
Tbps stands for terabits-per-seconds and a terabit is a trillion bits. compare that to the megabits-per-second that today's highest speed business and consumer broadband connection are measured in.
