Hi Stan, and welcome. The issue you've raised concerning acronyms comes up here every three or four months. It's inevitable. MikeM's diligence, notwithstanding ;-) Actually, Mike does a great job in explaining what the acronyms mean in his posts, but we are not all that thoughtful at all times.
Here's a site that I've used, and contributed to, at times:
techweb.com
Other posters may jump in here and offer their own favorites, as well. Good luck.

ps - Hint: Sometimes it pays to be persistent, or look more deeply, when using the tool that I've cited, above. For example, if you go there and search "optical cross connect", you will find that the tool does not contain the term, as written.
However, if you look in the field of 'like' terms that it displays for your perusal, you'll notice that the term actually does exist in its hyphenated form: "optical cross-connect". |
