The morning News yesterday, the world's largest network equipment business Cisco released a message that the company today 0 o'clock will make an important statement, and said it can "change the internet forever." Will Cisco's new technology be a universal set-top box, ultra-high-speed broadband or Internet censorship? Or just a hype? The industry has divergent views on this.

According to Cisco's official website, the company will make an important statement March 9 8 o'clock in the morning (Beijing time March 10 0 o'clock) local time: "The internet will be permanently changed, thereby changing the Internet's impact on individuals, businesses and governments." ”

In this respect, the industry mainly has three kinds of speculation. Media reports say Cisco will unveil a set-top box similar to Apple's apple. Cisco is working to develop a new product that integrates digital video, video streaming, internet access, and wireless mass storage systems. The Set-top box can bring Cisco's true video conferencing into the studio, helping wireless phone companies cope with rising video traffic.

There are also speculation that Cisco is likely to announce the introduction of ultra-high-speed home network access services, and provide a bandwidth of up to 100Gb Ethernet routers, to provide up to 1Gbps speed. If so, it only takes a few seconds to download a DVD from the network later.

Others argue that Cisco's new plan is related to internet censorship. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton hosted the IT industry giant, including top executives at Google and Cisco, before Google announced its exit in January this year. Clinton said at a dinner party that new technology policies are needed to help people use uncensored networks.

However, some people think that Cisco's statement may be hype, the release of new technology is not a big deal. "This is a bold statement and I can't imagine the impact of the new product," said Zeus Kelava, senior vice president of Yankee, a marketing research firm, Zeuskerravala. But I think Cisco wants to be recognised in the consumer-level network and wireless market, so it's likely that the company is deliberately speculating. ”
