Summary Box: New Cisco heavy-duty Internet router
THE PRODUCT: Core routers power the most trafficked parts of the Internet backbone, the main arteries for data.
THE UPGRADE: The new CRS-3 model from Cisco Systems Inc. is three times faster than the one introduced in 2004.
THE NEED: It can handle the equivalent of simultaneous video calls for every person in China. That much capacity may seem superfluous, but the growing use of online video increasingly demands it.
