Cisco’s Green Strategy Driving to aggressive goal:

GHG down 25% by 2012

Approach: Heavy emphasis on Networking & IT – Telepresence / Collaboration – IP enabled facilities – Labs / Data Centers – Improved product efficiencies

Active participation in many standards and agencies

Approaches to improve Energy Efficiency Reduce peak power –Technology dependant

–Match system capacity to demand

Watts/Un it

Reduce average power

High-End Internet Routers Practical power limit reached (~10-20kW) –Legacy power/cooling infrastructure limited & costly –Must design to peak, not average load

Little opportunity to reduce average power –Idle power ~2/3 of peak power –(Usually) not practical to power down subsystems

11

Continued Growth & Efficiency Gains? Technology efficiency gains: –Silicon roadmap –Alternative technologies…

Architectural change: –Power-efficient techniques –Reduce over-engineering –Especially: • Maximum performance • Functionality/feature processing

20% per year average efficiency gain appears achievable for several years SBSEE – G.Epps

12

Power-efficient architectures More parallelism vs. just cranking on raw frequency –Well-understood in the industry now –Metro: 188 parallel packet processors @250MHz (2004, 130nm) –QFP: 40 multi-threaded CPUs @1.2GHz (2008, 90nm)

Metro SBSEE – G.Epps
