GENI Programmable Core Node (PCN) (Programmable Core Router - PCR) (Frame data – SONET and proprietary) (Extract Circuits – ala. SONET X-connect) (Transform/Select Wavelength – ROADM+) (Switch Dark Fiber) Reference: GENI GDD-06-26 • Fiber • Lambda • Circuit • Framer

Worldwide Core & Edge RoutersMarket Assessment (In-Stat 2005) - TAM • Total Revenues will grow to over $8.4B by 2009 • L2/L3 Switches – another high growth segment (not included in these numbers)
Vendor Viewpoint • Standard Architecture • Closed architectures optimized for handling current commercial requirements • Bundled hardware-software systems with proprietary architectures • High margins for complete systems • Not commoditized systems • Long-term maintenance contracts provided predictable revenue stream • Etc. • GENI Architecture • Open architecture for flexibility • Potentially disruptive to current product families • Large commercial vendors will likely not pursue this architecture. Will likely be built by startup or University.
