Hi Frank,
Someone on the MRV Communications thread referenced this post for us. It is very interesting and informative. It strikes me that you or one of the other posters on this thread might be able to help us. MRV announced a new product which incorporates what they call dynamic DWDM. Here is the press release: nbase.com

There is only one regular poster on the MRVC thread that understands the technology on any kind of sophisticated level and he is on a 5 week trip. We are wondering what the difference is between dynamic DWDM and regular DWDM. Is this a necessary ingredient of a totally optical switch? Is anyone else marketing a totally optical switch? Also, I've been under the impression that optical technology is one of the real core strengths of the MRVC founders and assume that they have had the capability to develop WDM products for a long time. I think their first WDM product is only 4 channels and they may have announced an 8 channel product. With other companies selling WDM products with way more channels, I'm wondering why MRV chose to introduce products with relatively few channels. Is it because 4 or 8 channels are all that are needed in the kinds of LAN/WAN products that they make and more channels would be expensive overkill?

If any of you would like to come over to the MRVC thread and answer these questions and offer any opinions you might have about MRV Comm./nbase/xyplex products we would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance for any help you can render.
