TA, perhaps Pat can correct me if I'm wrong, but the 36190 has been a dismal failure. I'm not sure they ever got this switch working properly (and wasn't it a Siemens design anyway). I know of no deployments of this switch, anywhere. Again, If I'm wrong, I'm sure Pat will enlighten me. And NN's new switch will be 50Gb/s. It will be scalable, but the meaning of scalability is always unclear. I would need to see details. Ascend said their 25Gb/s switch is scalable to 100Gb/s but their method of scaling simple adds latency to cell flows, and therefore its a rare application that might not care of a 4x latency. I know of no deployments of a 100Gb/s GX550 switch. gary
