To makes it into the reality, the Cisco has designed a very large and complex 200Gbps and fully duplex 40nm ASIC. It contains over 4B transistors and over 3000 pins. It is a programmable ASIC meaning we can add intelligence, features and functions over time by maintaining higher level of performance.
