Juniper has interface cards (PICS) ranging from T1 to OC192.  They've also
got a channelized DS3 PIC that is capable of supporting DS0 channels.

They've got chassis that will support from 4 to 32 PICS, so they've
covered core, distribution, and all but the lowest end access devices.

Cisco is a time tested solution, but I'd guess that Juniper will gain some
market share as their products evolve.

    carrier class type equipment. Am I correct? We are not talking about
    replacing  2501's , or 3640's, or even 7500's. We are talking stuff used to
    terminate many multiple OC3 and higher? Correct?

    Juniper devices are ok to work with.  The hardest thing to get used to is
    the fact that JunOS is BSD by any other name.
    
    Configuration is essentially pretty easy.
    
    Of course, coming from a cisco world, I originally feared Juniper boxes,
    but now I don't mind them so much.

        JuniperFoot print is the overall physical size of the router. As to
    whether they're good or not, I have no clue. Never worked with any other
    routers than Cisco. But then, I've only worked with 2 routers up to now...

          Help guys,
    
          My company wants to buy Juniper routers instead of Cisco. Having never
    worked with Juniper equipment before I don't know why it's so good.
    
          I'm told that it's faster, cheaper and has a smaller foot print?
    What's a foot print? Is it really better then Cisco?
