Hello Guys,
I need to replace Cisco 7206VXR (NPE-G1) with PA-MC-STM-1SMI adapter. Since it is very old hardware I am having hard times finding a decent replacement. What would you sugest please? It does now have to be new nor under support.
Thanks,

Hi,
In order to characterize a suitable product for you, it may be useful to first know the answers to the following questions:
- What is the size of your network (small office, branch, or enterprise)?
- What specific network requirements do you have (routing features for example)?
- What is the expected traffic volume/routing throughput on your network?
- Are there any specific security or compliance requirements (IPSec for example)?
- What type of interfaces do you need (RJ45/SFP/1G/10G for example)?
- how much interfaces do you need?

Hi,
- small network
- OSPF, BGP, VRF
- 3xE1 will be terminated here, might be up to 100Mbit in future
- no specific security or compliance requirements
- 2xRJ45, 1G + STM-1 adapter
Thanks a lot!

The main reason is to change obsolete hardware with something newer and let those 3xE1 run there for now. I do not think this is going to expand any time in future.
