Stimpson, you are correct that Alcatel doesn't support 2.4G yet, I overstated this. However, be clear that ASND has only announced this and won't be shipping for some time yet either. The fact remains that that the Alcatel switch fabric is currently at 80Gb/s, quite enough to support many 622 links in and out, and hence its backbone classification (along with other attibrutes related to high reliability; although all vendors now seem to have these, too). ASND currently only ships the CBX500, a 2.5 or 5Gb/s product. The soon to ship GX500 starts at 25G and can go to 100G.
