The Cisco 16nn series is cheaper (around £1500 or so)and more for small
networks. The Cisco 25nn/26nn are for serious applications. The most
logical solution would be a 64K leased line which would involve about
£4500 on the internet charges and about £1200 rental on the line per
year with about £1800 installation charge. Eitherway, there will not be
much left out of £10K.
