What is the most cost effective equipment to use to connect two locations with an OC-3c circuit? I currently have 7206VXR routers at both ends, so would prefer slot cards for those if feasible.
There are PA-POS-OC3 cards (IIRC 3 flavors), and you need to shop for the right kind to match up with the way your telco provider is handing the circuit to you (multimode, single-mode intermediate reach and single-mode long reach). http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/modules/ps2033/prod_brochure09186a0080091c94.html I recently needed some OC3 interfaces and went with older POSIP-OC3-50 cards (full size cards for the 7500 series) as they were much cheaper than PA-POS cards. They're basically specialized VIP2-50's with a double-wide POS adaptor. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis *jlewis () lewis org*| I route System Administrator | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
