Hi Luke,
I first heard about WDM on the Nortel thread and was surprised to hear that Ciena was already shipping a product to Sprint. In the January 27/1997 issue of EE Times it says that Pirelli (who is presently engaged in suing Ciena), Lucent, Alcatel and Fujitsu are also in the process of designing equipment. In their prospectus Ciena says it buys lasers from Nortel .

A mux/demux pair is reported to cost around $20,000. It seems that Lightwave Microsystems (who seem to be privately held) is making chips for WDM.

Cheers,

Winston
