sync E feature in cisco switch

[Per_Cas]

Hello forum Guys, 

I just wonder do you know any cisco switch models that could be capable of transfering layer 2 Sync E packets ?

This is the manual entry from a Cisco 7600 showing how to configure it.  7600's are being replaced by ASR 9k's.

The newer ASR 9k's look they also support it (search for 1588).

hello dath

thanks!  7600 or ASR9000 - those are expensive machines. I probably won't use 80% of its features. Do you know any other/cheaper  alternative?

Hi,

Also see the ASR1000 routers - they support Sync-Eth too

Hello,

Just for somebody who would be interested in this topis - I also found Cisco ME-3600X-24CX-M Ethernet/TDM Access Switch which support sync E.
