Cisco, China Telecom Team up for Broadband Network
Cisco Systems announced Thursday that it was selected by Shanghai Telecom, a subsidiary of China Telecom, to supply networking technology for the creation of a city-wide multimillion-US-dollar broadband network.

Cisco products, primarily the Cisco 12400 Series Internet Routers, will provide the IP backbone network and services for the construction of the second phase of the Shanghai Telecom Metropolitan Area Network (MAN), Shanghai's largest IP backbone exchange and access network. Upon completion of Phase II construction, the Shanghai MAN is expected to be China's largest urban communications network.

The Shanghai MAN Phase II construction, which is scheduled to begin by the end of this year, will use Cisco's routers and switches to upgrade the existing network. The upgrade will create one of the most comprehensive information infrastructure systems in China and will allow Shanghai Telecom to deliver rapid communications services, such as high-speed Internet access, Virtual Private Network, and Multicasting, to its users.

After the second phase expansion is completed, Shanghai Telecom will immediately provide full network point-to-point Virtual Private Network services to private users and commercial buildings, including those equipped with older Ethernet and copper connections.
