The AXI 540 router and the public IP network edge

摘要

In April 1999, Ericsson acquired Torrent Networking Technologies, a USA- based start-up manufacturer of high-end Gigabit routers for public IP net- works. The team at Torrent-now the Ericsson IP infrastructure group within the Datacom Business Unit-began rolling out its new AXI 540 Edge Aggregation Router during the fourth quarter of 1999. The AXI 540 Router, which has been optimized to serve the edge of new public IP net- Works, is a natural fit in Ericsson's expanding portfolio of data products.
