Were they? I thought the standard non-Super Hub was being distributed last year at the same time as the VMNG300 was still being provided.
Either way, in general I meant the other way round - network infrastructure is often based on two different vendors so failure of one vendor's equipment would not cause the entire network to break. See for example LINX, who run two separate networks for resiliency, specifically using two different vendors' hardware. End-user CPEs are rarely critical bits of infrastructure
