Description
Cisco is poised to benefit from the transition from circuit switch network to IP architecture. Circuit switching is being replaced because it is inefficient.

Circuit switching depends on an end-to-end circuit connection that leaves a lot of dead space in the network while a single call is being handled. Packet switching permits a single line to manage many calls simultaneously. Cisco dominates packet network equipment markets. Frame relay, IP, and ATM are known as packet or cell switching technologies. Cisco dominates in the IP space. This report covers the topic.
