Modular Competitive Landscape
Cisco: Catalyst 6500-E claims to
preserve investment for Core;
Catalyst 4500-E offers advanced
functions & performance for
Aggregation
HP ProCurve/3Com: 8200zl &
5400zl claims to provide the
performance/density/scalability
combined with low pricing to
build their networks
Juniper: EX 8200 claims to offer
high performance, line rate 10G &
common Juno OS
 6500-E has limited compatibility between Chassis,
Supervisors, Line Cards, & Software causing high TCO;
ERS 8600 provides excellent investment protection
 4500-E lacks the performance, 10G density & scalability
compared to ERS 8300 that offers higher performance &
10G port density
 It is true that 8200zl & 5400zl are priced lower than ERS
8600 & ERS 8300 but Customers pay big penalties for
getting less denser & resilient platforms as well as lower
performance
 The 3Com acquisition will add more advanced products
but product rationalization in the progress
 EX 8200 is a year old platform that competes more with
our VSP 9000 & will ship in 2H10. VSP 9000 will offer
much higher switching architecture, 10G port density &
ultra-resiliency.

15
Stackable Competitive Landscape
 Stacking capacity is limited, only 64Gbps for the 3750 and
Cisco: 3750 is the Stackable
option; the 3750-E offers
additional capacity; 2960 & 3560
are standalone-only
HP ProCurve/3Com: Broad range
offering typical but
unspectacular functionality;
3Com is more advanced but the
acquisition complicates things
marginally more for the 3750-E: compared to 1.152Tbps
for the ERS 5600, and even 32Gbps for the entry-level
2500
 Cisco places a lot of emphasis on Layer 3 at the Edge: this
increases complexity, cost, & makes restoration more
difficult
 ProCurve doesn’t offer any genuine Stacking, just
consolidated Management
 3Com products are more advanced, with real Stacking
 But the acquisition will ultimately force product
rationalization
 Stacking capacity on the 4200 is good and Layer 3 is
Juniper: EX 4200 is high-end &
Stackable; 2200 & 3200 are
Standalone; 2500 is a Top-ofRack option
strong across the board, however Juniper do not have any
unique high-availability solution
 Emphasis on L3 increases costs, complexity, and makes
restoration more difficult
 Warranty is very uncompetitive
