Cisco Module UBR MC20X20V – Broadband Card – uBR-MC20X20V-20D Cheap

The Cisco ^® uBR-MC20X20V Broadband Processing Engine (BPE) is a next-generation line card for the Cisco uBR10012 Universal Broadband Router. It adds exciting features to the Cisco uBR10012 platform – including 20 upstream and 20 downstream channels – while supporting the industry benchmark standards for excellence and reliability that were established by the Cisco 5x20H BPE.

With the explosion of video traffic and social networking applications, speed and scalability are critical factors to keeping consumers happy. Cisco’s Visual Networking Index (VNI) forecasts that by 2013, annual global IP traffic will reach two-thirds of a zettabyte (one trillion gigabytes), video traffic will exceed 90 percent of global consumer traffic, and the global online video will comprise 60 percent of consumer Internet traffic (up from 32 percent in 2009).

As consumer demand for high-quality media on any device grows daily, cable operators are considering new intelligent solutions for their medianets (all-IP Next-Generation Networks optimized for rich media).

Cisco provides an end-to-end, DOCSIS ^® 3.0-capable solution enabling multiple services to multiple devices over the same infrastructure to both residential and commercial subscribers.

This solution will allow service providers to deliver the best possible quality of experience, while minimizing operating expenses and differentiating next-generation services from those of their competitors.

Cisco’s DOCSIS 3.0 solution with the Cisco uBR-MC20X20V card delivers faster speeds and higher density with a flexible and scalable architecture. The resulting benefits are faster time to market, lower total cost of ownership (TCO), and higher revenues, thus helping operators to prepare their networks for the exponential growth of IP traffic.

The Cisco uBR-MC20X20V, Figure 1, delivers support for DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS 3.0, including full upstream and downstream channel bonding and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption. The line card provides the capability to have 160 downstream and 160 upstream interfaces in a single Cisco uBR10012 chassis and, when used with the DOCSIS 3.0-capable Cisco 1 Gbps Wideband Shared Port Adapter (SPA), can scale to 304 downstream channels. [ note: DOCSIS is another company’s trademark, and not part of the SPA’s product name] This leads the industry in capacity. The Cisco uBR-MC20X20V is operationally exceedingly simple to upgrade from the Cisco 5x20H BPE or Cisco 5x20U BPE. Further, Cisco offers pay-as-you-grow flexibility with software licensing for downstream channels (0DS, 5DS and 20DS SW licenses are offered).
