Mark, its really not the number of wavelengths in MetroDWDM that is important,its the functionality. It is not pure brute force of multiplexing,its designing the most efficient and interoperable system out there. Remember they are using different wavelengths for broadcast and narrowcast,they use an opaque add/drop at the hub and retransmit the signals to the nodes. It is the ease of use and interoperability in HLIT's system. Remember they can take one feed from the headend and using 8 DWDM,each wavelength having their own QAM channel,so in essence broadcasting to 60-80 nodes per headend feed. But that is the old system, the new micronode is even more efficient with regard to broadcasting. I need a full article on it,to critique the system though. But it has approximately 50 subs per node,that is phenomenal. We have to get the specs and a full article on its implementation before I can comment further,and might have to call someone like Frank Collucio or a fiber optic engineer into the discussion. Tim
