Dave, very interesting, but I'm a little stumped on one item. What does fiber to the home FTH have to do with direct broadcast satellite DBS?

"Unlike other systems, Deep Fiber FTH allows homeowners to utilize currently available equipment and supports multiple DBS hookups over a single cable."

Are the dishes perhaps out near the field fiber node? As Vinny Barbarino would say, "Whut?"

It's probably something staring me straight in the face (yeah, right.. like converting the energy from optical signals...).

But it's way late, and I'm inherently dense, I know.. but those are simple terms that I should be getting, and I'm not getting them. Would you do me the honor?

i'll have to go back to look at the Marconi OEM situation... i know MRV has been supplying a lot of components to them, but not sure exactly what.
