Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought the GRF-400 was an Ascend product and the GRF-1600 is the NetStar GigaRouter, with some additional developments.
The GRF-400 is out there in networks like AGIS, NetRail, PSI, DOMINO and Savvis. No word on any NetStar-cum-GRF1600 deployments.
Am I right?
My understanding is that the GRF-400 is just a 4 slot version of the GRF-1600, modulo cosmetic differences, branding etc. Certainly this is one of the easiest ways that one can take a crossbar switch and produce a cost reduced, bandwidth reduced midrange. Tony p.s. Do I hear a chainsaw in Minneapolis? ;-) ;-) ;-)
