>>I would also be disappointed if Ciena bought a SONET company - I thought the advantage of CoreDirector was price and flexibility and had its sights set on eventually uprooting the SONET stranglehold in the metro . . .I know there is still huge growth potential but its become almost common knowledge the days of SONET hegemony are numbered.<< I have not done enough reading to really give a comfortable opinion on Cyras yet, but it appears that it may be more of an access company whose products incorporate some features of SONET as opposed to being strictly a SONET company...Perhaps somebody else more familiar with it can give us a more accurate opinion...
