The 4048 is a new product aimed at a different target market:
The MAX™4048 and 4060 are the new low-cost, fixed-configuration WAN access
switches from Ascend targeted directly at the needs of corporations and small
to mid-sized ISPs. The MAX 4048 is specifically designed for two T1/PRI
operation
while the MAX 4060 is designed for two E1/PRI operation.
