The Cisco 7606-S is a high-performance, rack-mountable router designed to meet the needs of expanding networks and to provide exceptional forwarding and routing capabilities. It is equipped with the Cisco 7600 Series Route Switch Processor 720, commonly known as the RSP720, and includes a Policy Feature Card 3C (PFC-3C). This router is ideal for service providers and large enterprises, offering enhanced scalability and high availability with advanced technology features.
One of the key features of this router is its 6-slot chassis, which provides flexibility and ample room for future growth, making it a suitable choice for large networks with evolving demands. It also features dedicated slots for uplinks and other modules, augmenting its expandability. The integrated PFC-3C allows for advanced traffic filtering and forwarding, ensuring scalable and intelligent network services, particularly across Layer 2 and Layer 3 infrastructures.
The included Route Switch Processor (RSP720) serves as the critical brain of the router, managing multiple tasks simultaneously while ensuring the smooth functioning of Ethernet and WAN interfaces. It provides up to 30 million packets per second (Mpps) of forwarding performance and supports IPv4 and IPv6 dual-stack operations, making it future-proof as network protocols evolve. The chassis also supports both higher and lower power configurations, enhancing energy efficiency when scaling up operations.
This router is built to deliver increased network operational efficiency and reliability, featuring high-availability failover capabilities and redundant power supply options. It can operate effectively in both enterprise and service provider environments, handling core and access tasks for modern data-heavy applications with ease. It also supports Virtual Route Forwarding (VRF) Lite, Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), and offers modular software to ease deployment and management of new services.
