Gary, Interesting article involving Monterey Networks. NEC, Monterey Demonstrate Systems NFOEC 9/29/99 Monterey Networks (Richardson, TX) and NEC America (Melville, NY) combined their optical networking technologies at the National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (NFOEC) to demonstrate how carriers can effectively supply their customers with massive amounts of raw bandwidth and harness it for delivery as differentiated bandwidth services. The NFOEC was held Sept. 27-29 in Chicago. The demonstration illustrated the interoperability of the Monterey 20000 Series Wavelength Router and the NEC SpectralWave DWDM System. Streaming video data was transmitted over a simulated network in which SpectralWave dense wave division multiplexing (DWDM) units and Monterey Wavelength Routers are interconnected. www2.fiberopticsonline.com{A5BBC0CF-7525-11D3-9A64-00A0C9C83AFB}&Bucket=Industry+News brian

Cisco's president advises Ericsson to step up the pace Finanstidningen, 1999-10-02 In the latest edition of Kapital, John Chambers, president of Cisco, gives his view of what Ericsson should do better. He thinks that Ericsson must implement changes faster otherwise it risks falling behind. Chambers compares Ericsson with Alcatel, a vertical company. Vertical companies develop products, acts as consultants, manage system integration, creates applications etc. These companies are always beaten by horizontal companies, i.e companies that are the best in the business. Chambers thinks that Ericsson should do what Motorola did. Motorola had to struggle to survive the technology shift and president Chris Galvin realised that he had to make rapid changes. Mr Chambers finally emphasises the importance of listening to customers. He himself spends half his working days with customers.
