RE: CRS-3

["Huizinga, Rene" <rhuizinga () upcbroadband com>]

Cisco and linerate...if it would be a Juniper I could say OK, on a Cisco, first see then believe. 

Also, seeing CRS-1's, is the '3' in CRS-3 the multiplier or magnitude of problems to be expected compared to its 
'little' buggy sister.. ? :)

Is that the cost for a nameplate you can stick on an empty rack with
dark glass so you can fool people visiting your datacenter? I've put
together BoMs for the CRS-1, and the pricing was at least an order of
magnitude higher.

Linecards are interesting. We get a 100Gb card, we get a linerate
14-port 10Gb card, but apparently there's still only a single port
OC-768 40Gb card.
