From the Williams release this morning... >>Williams Communications continues to test and deploy the latest optical switching technology to lower its network equipment and operating costs. The company completed certification of a third optical vendor: Ciena Corporation's intelligent optical switch will enable Williams to turn up services faster over a simpler, smarter network. A field trial of equipment developed by Corvis Corporation continued during the quarter with the longest all-optical terrestrial communications transmission in history. The test should be complete early in the fourth quarter. With existing agreements from Nortel Networks and Sycamore, these additional optical equipment sources typify Williams' multi-vendor strategy.<< biz.yahoo.com
