It is transforming into the platform onto which all applications and media are converging – whether for voice, video, data or mobile.  The move towards “the Network as the Platform” is also changing the entire value chain of IT. And the network is emerging as the center of innovation, as more products and services become centered around it. By 2010, as many as 14 billion devices will be connected to the Internet.  For consumers, “the Network as the Platform” delivers the customized, seamless and secure experience they want. For companies, it is the single, most cost-effective framework within which complex IT solutions can be integrated and deployed to help achieve business goals.

By combining our core strength (IP) with intelligence, we are creating a powerful platform that serves as the infrastructure for the converged technologies in a secure, integrated architecture.  This network, built from Cisco switches, routers and software, then enables customers to run the services and applications they need to realize the potential of their business.

The new platform, with converged network capabilities, enables them to streamline their business requirements, and enhance the experience of their end-users. This effectively turns “network as the platform” into a reality  MAP allows you to tap into this existing customer base easily and quickly. Thereby creating more business opportunities and financial rewards for you.

All rights reserved.Cisco Confidential 8 MAP Value Proposition Why customers should upgrade to Cisco’s new, advanced switches  Improved infrastructure Cisco offers the industry’s most advanced and versatile range of modular and fixed-configuration local area network (LAN) switches. Cisco switches can be adapted to customers’ unique business requirements, from small workgroups to large network cores – now and in the future. They deliver intelligent services on an integrated platform that supports and enables Quadruple play (voice, video, data and mobile) applications and services. They can support new high-powered computers and applications. With Cisco switches, the network stays up even if there is a failure with certain network components. (High availability)  Security Cisco’s intelligent switches are key to securing the LAN network, preventing unauthorized access of information by external agents or from within the organization. (Integrated security)  Greater connectivity Individuals and groups within the organization can connect to each other anytime, anywhere: Through a single point, they can be contacted via IP phones, mobile phones or online. Information and resources can be shared and accessed within the organization, regardless of location.  Enhanced functionality Productivity is enhanced as new, more powerful applications and services can be installed and deployed faster across the organization. Customers can start implementing advanced, real-time applications, like voice and video. They can leverage the intelligent, integrated foundation for advanced technologies such as Unified Communications (UC), Security, Mobility.  Flexibility The network can be scaled up or down quickly and cost-effectively when the organization grows/contracts organically or through a merger or acquisition.  Business resilience Customers gain a system that will be compatible with future technologies. With Cisco switches, customers can set up a network that complies with regulatory requirements.  Cost savings Customers can cut down operating expenses significantly with a system that reduces complexity, streamlines maintenance and training, and is scalable.
