Summary

Jeetu Patel, Nick, and Mohammad delve into our custom silicon strategy. While many see networking as a software-driven game, we discuss why many of the most significant breakthroughs are happening at the physical layer. We explore how Cisco’s unique approach to co-designing silicon alongside our software and systems portfolio is creating a level of performance and efficiency that simply cannot be achieved with off-the-shelf components.
