<< Plenty of observers are still skeptical about MEMS, the technology behind OMM’s tiny tilting mirrors. Their moving parts, which could jam, wear out, or become damaged in earthquakes, make them intrinsically unreliable and unsuitable for telecom networks, they say. >> Tilting mirrors? Moving parts? In optical networks? I don't know a damn thing about optics... except sometimes I catch a little bit of what Sector writes. But how the hell do you make micro tilting mirrors that sit for 20 years in networks, and tilt, and tilt, and tilt,...... Everything I know that tilts a lot usually wears out after a few billion tilts.... Jeez, I gotta stop drinking before I post here. BP
