"This stuff gets pretty expensive when you add it on in addition to the switch....Also, they lacked the inside track on keeping up with the all important switch interfaces for the HDT, something that gives Nortel an edge over the others."

Ray,
Now we're getting to the really important stuff (since I've been a long time follower of the networkers :)). The switches that are able to be used in an HFC network!

Can you expound on these words, "switch interfaces for the HDT," a little more. Specifically, are you saying the HFC network has some special obstacles that make it more difficult to interface, than say any old (if there is such a thing) fiber network? I thought all data networkers had products that could be dropped into an HFC network relatively easy. But I was totally guessing at that.
Thanks,
MikeM(From Florida)
