<< craig: I take it you don't believe Lucent/Bell-Labs has the knowledge in this area to produce an 80 channel system >> I know LU claimed to do 206 in a lab. I'm sure they can do 80 channels in the real world. I wonder how much it's going to cost. I'm sure if LU can do 80 channels CIEN probably can too. I wonder how 80 channels adds up to 400Gb/s. Is there such a thing as OC-96? I have heard of OC-48 (2.5Gb/s) and OC-192 (10Gb/s) but didn't know OC-96 (5Gb/s) was a widely used protocol. Perhaps it's some kind of full duplex set-up that I really don't understand, running at OC-48. I don't really understand the technical details of these systems and how they are rated. Where is Tim Bagwell when I need him?
