Consolidating Networks Using Cisco Any Transport over MPLS

Overview The realization of consolidated networks and converged, packet-based architectures requires incremental migration solutions that must protect and optimize existing infrastructure investments and revenues, while leading to new, highly profitable service portfolios. The Cisco Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) solution leverages Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) core networks to build and maximize Layer 2 and 3 service revenues by consolidating networks on the industry's leading multi-service platform, the Cisco Carrier IP/MPLS Portfolio.
