Cisco as part of a self-proclaimed “revolutionary” event today launched a new router system meant for the very highest levels of Internet and cellular carriers. The CRS-3 is roughly three times faster than the previous Cisco best and theoretically provides as much as 322 terabits per second (Tbps) when it’s attached to a suitable network.
