Nokia's IP product portfolio can be categorized based on device silicon into the following major types, with different product series deployed according to hardware foundations and application scenarios:
1. Custom-Developed Silicon (FP & FPcx)
This category uses Nokia's in-house developed high-performance network processors (FP and FPcx) to deliver carrier-grade, high-performance solutions.
7750 Service Router (SR & SR-s Series): Designed for edge and core network services, these routers support multi-protocol routing, IP/MPLS, and high-performance QoS.
7730 Service Interconnect Router (SXR): Tailored for IP access, aggregation, and edge networks, it provides high performance, security, and flexible scalability.
2. Merchant Silicon
This category leverages off-the-shelf commercial chips to offer cost-effective solutions for data center and access-layer networks.
7250 / 7220 Interconnect Router (IXR): High-density switches for data centers, supporting flexible multi-rate interfaces such as 10GE, 100GE, and 400GE.
7210 Service Access Switch (SAS): Service switches designed for access-layer networks, supporting broadcast, video, and enterprise services.
7705 Service Aggregation Router (SAR): Purpose-built for access and aggregation networks, these routers are designed for mission-critical services such as LTE backhaul or private line applications.
