Cisco Systems rolled out a fresh switch chip and a router on Tuesday, both built for keeping massive AI clusters humming — a direct shot at Broadcom and Nvidia. The new Silicon One G300, slated for release in the back half of the year and leveraging Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co’s 3‑nanometer process, comes loaded with “shock absorber” tech to manage sudden data surges. According to Cisco, it could push certain AI workloads up to 28% faster. “We focus on the total end-to-end efficiency of the network,” said Martin Lund, executive vice president at Cisco, in an interview with Reuters.
