I have disagree, there isn't comparable cisco product. This falls
between ME6524 and 3560/3750. ME6524 is not fair comparison (to 1U EX's),
because of it's considerably larger FIB and more full-blow MPLS support.
Price-wise 3560/3750 are close, while arguably less useful than EX in SP
applications due to lack of MPLS and IS-IS.
I hope that some arms race between csco and jnpr happens on account of
EX's in 1U 'switch' portfolios.
