Summary

The Multiple Services Routers (MSR) series is a new product portfolio from H3C geared towards multi-service applications, delivering concurrent services of data, voice and video at wirespeed. To meet the various demands of different industries, the Multiple Services Routers series provides customers with a unique experience of network flexibility and agility. Demonstrating innovative and forward-thinking concepts, MSR integrates adaptive services into a single platform with high security and reliability, thus lowering network cost and uncertainty.

MSR employs optimized hardware and software structure to guarantee embedded security and enhanced performance while providing services covering Voice over IP (VoIP), business video and network analysis etc. By supporting a wider range of modules, MSR features higher interface density and allows for the availability of more. Regarding future network expansion and versatile network applications, MSR offers third party interfaces in accordance to the standard of Open Application Architecture (OAA). In addition, MSR adopts the most advanced Comware 5 software platform, providing abundant mainstream functions such as IPv6, MPLS TE etc.

With newly developed high performance modules compatible with some AR 28 and AR 46 interface modules, the Multiple Services Routers series offers more modern and innovative  applications while providing comprehensive investment protection on a per-user basis. Currently, MSR comprises eight products over three levels, namely MSR 20, MSR 30 and MSR 50, meeting the demands of small and medium sized enterprises and large scale corporations in every industry.

The MSR 50 series serves as the flagship product line of the MSR series, and is comprised of two products, namely the MSR 50-40 and MSR 50-60. As multiple service routers geared towards to mid to large enterprises, MSR 50 delivers secure, fast and concurrent services to meet the demands of various applications. With an embedded hardware-based encryption chip, the MSR 50 greatly improves the security performance. In addition, the MSR 50 supports four types of multiple service modules, including the DSIC (Double-width SIC) and DFIC (Double width FIC) of which help to achieve convergence of routing and switching on a unified platform. Additionally, with scalable voice processing modules and open application architecture, MSR 50 gives much flexibility while protecting investment on a per-user basis. The MSR 50 products are displayed below:
