fumble: Carrier telecommunication is faced with an electronic bottleneck which is defintely going to be replaced by light and Optelectronics.

I appreciate you cannot replace the existing protocol zoo.
However the bandwidth of usable Optic frequency is 75 thousand gigahertz. This bandwidth can be used to accomodate the zoo. Using MPLS,IP and fibre channel switching it is feasible to eliminate ATM completely.

I strongly believe that LU and NT are working towards that end and have slowed down R&D on electronic switches. Are you aware of what development work these Companies are doing on next generation Silicon switches.

Thanks.
