If you are after copper aggregation and broadband user feature support, you might also want to take a look at the Cisco10000. Not sure of its POS capabilities, but depending on your density, might be cheaper $/port than the 7600. Heard mixed reports on the E-series from Juniper (software mainly, so it does depend on what you try and do with it), but if you want line rate ACLs, QoS etc, hard to go past the M-series (spec. M10i, M7i). OT: love the doilly comments on the 7500. I'll have to ask Mum to make me a few...

In 2004? Throw those things in the trash where theybelong. It'salways amazing to me how many people will cling to obsoletethings foryears just because it is what they know.Don't agree with this. For E1/T1 access these boxes are fine. Yes they are long in the tooth but they are quite capable. I wouldn't spend a huge amount of time or money trying to make them do anything else though.Even a Juniper M5 will do 16 OC3's with line rate filtering and forwarding. There are probably a dozen designconsiderations based onrequirements you haven't described, but if you're doingprimarily sonet,7600 isn't really the way to go.Depends on what "primarily sonet" means.
