RE: 10G MetroE 1-2U Switch

["Clapp, Karl" <kclapp () fairpoint com>]

Anyone has a ZTE sales contact in the US, specifically in the New England region?

Seems like something I may want to look into.. Tired of SmartNet..

Regards..

The ZTE ZXR10 5960 will do MPLS for about 3k USD:

24x 10G and 2x 40G

We use them for L2VPN (VPLS).

I have not done QOS on this hardware, so I can not say how well that works.

Baldur
