NGN Routing
NGN technology is fundamental to the foundation of the Internet. This category of technologies interconnects public and
private wireline and mobile networks for mobile, data, voice, and video applications. Our NGN Routing portfolio of hardware
and software solutions consists primarily of physical and virtual routers and routing systems. Our solutions are designed to
meet the scale, reliability, and security needs of our customers. In our view, our portfolio is differentiated from those of our
competitors through the advanced capabilities, which we sometimes refer to as “intelligence,” that our products provide at
each layer of network infrastructure to deliver performance in the transmission of information and media-rich applications.
As to specific products, we offer a broad range of hardware and software solutions, from core network infrastructure and
mobile network routing solutions for service providers and enterprises to access routers for branch offices and for
telecommuters and consumers at home. Key product areas within our NGN Routing category are as follows:

Small cell access routers
During fiscal 2014, we continued to add new capabilities, including a new platform in our high-end routers known as the Cisco
Network Convergence System (NCS). In fiscal 2014, we also made several enhancements to our Cisco ASR series of products.
We also continue to provide enhancements to our NGN Routing portfolio through our architectural approach, which consists
of a programmable network at the foundation and a services platform that connects the network to applications and services.
Our solutions seek to combine silicon, systems, and software to enable the next-generation IoE and compelling new
experiences for consumers, new revenue opportunities for service providers, and new ways to collaborate in the workplace.
