SBC made similar promises in its 1997
acquisition of Pacific Telesis. While not
ruling out eventual success, its
performance against those promises
since then is mixed. A year after closing
the acquisition, for example, SBC still
hasn't managed to completely integrate
the two companies' network structures,
since SBC uses Newbridge (NN) switches
and Pacific Telesis used Ascend (ASND)
switches. (SBC faces a similar integration
problem with Ameritech's wireless
business since it uses the CDMA
standard instead of the TDMA technology
employed by SBC.)
