  • Cisco Systems Routing Innovations
    Cisco Systems Routing Innovations Innovation in Internet Protocol (IP) routing is one of Cisco Systems’ strongest commitments. The IP router—the heart of the Internet—inspects each packet of data and its corresponding IP address and sends it through the network using sophisticated hardware and software technology. The company has more than 15 years of development and innovation experience, and has built the largest IP networks in the world. Cisco continues to be a market share leader in IP Routing, and according to Synergy Research, the IP Routing market is expected to grow from $7 billion today to $10.5 billion by 2007. Today’s core and edge routing announcements reinforce Cisco’s commitment to enabling service providers to be successful in a very challenging environment. The Cisco routing platform allows service providers to protect their existing infrastructure investments, while providing the foundation for new, revenue-generating services. Cisco’s most recent routing innovation—the Cisco Carrier Routing System (CRS-1)—demonstrates how the company has built a networking router of unprecedented performance and intelligence to run the infrastructure for the Information Age. Below is a timeline of Cisco’s routing innovations from 1986 through the present. For more information on Cisco’s leadership routing technologies, solutions, and services, visit http://newsroom.cisco.com/dlls/innovators/Core_IP/index.html. 1986 • Cisco forever changes networking communications industry and Internet by launching its first innovation, the AGS multi-protocol router. • Cisco introduces and ships the FGS, its first remote access router. 1993 • Cisco introduces the high-end 7000 router. 1994 • Cisco introduces the Cisco 2500 Series: the first compact, full-featured router for small or branch offices.
