Hi Mike, Ken & all - if memory serves, NT did have some announcement awhile back partnering with TYC submarine division. I don't know the customer though [since both NT and TYC are likely part of the consortium.] My guess is that there are also sub-contractor under the ALA's contract.

Btw, does anyone remember who are the vendors for GBLX Pacific route?

best, Bosco

Ken- No. I picked it up from Alcatel's last CC. I thought it was a great description myself.

Well if you don't know of NT's presence in the wet-DWDM market, I'm guessing NT's presence is probably small or non-exsistant. I just thought when Bosco linked to the undersea url, it was directly connected to NT.

With all the talk of, "Too much bandwidth, blah, blah," I post on the Last Mile, I never hear of too much being undersea. Wouldn't surprise me if NT has plans to be a player in it soon. I think it's going to be a substantial market. -MikeM(From Florida)

Mike, By the way, I heard a commentator on CNBC this morning state he thought the European economy would perform better this year than the US economy. This would be good news for Alcatel, Ericsson and Nortel.
