"This technology[CWDM] brings the benefit afforded until now only to long-haul carrier backbones, to the regional and metropolitan networks." Greg- Appreciate you calling IR and relaying the information. I'm pretty certain C-WDM was developed for the metro markets. As the excerpt, from their PR above says. And it pretty much says what I thought Noam said months ago. Nothing you were told by the company is contradictory. OC-192 is a core capacity benchmark. Albeit it may have that capability, I think C-WDM's real claim to fame will be in the metro market. I feel it's important because I think currently this market is crowded with only expensive M-DWDM solutions for SPs. If a telecom equipment maker can cut the manufacturing costs for metro-carrier class products, then it's significant because incumbent LECs rarely want to overspend. They only want to spend what is absolutely required of them. I think this C-WDM product may fit well into that plan. Maybe not as exciting as bragging about a high capacity core product, but IMHO, it should find a nice home in the metro market. -MikeM(From Florida)
