Is this correct? WorldCom uses Fujitsu DWDM and Nortel's optical switch. This is not the way I understood the PR. "This month, WorldCom completed the first phase of its Terabit Challenge, sending date at 1.6 terabits per second over a hair-thin pair of fibers connecting New York and Washington, D.C., and laying a foundation for services such as Web hosting and virtual private networks. WorldCom achieved those speeds using Fujitsu Network Communications' Flashwave Dense Wavelength (DWDM) equipment that divides light into dozens of wavelengths, each capable of carrying its own traffic, and Nortel Networks' Optera optical switch, which is capable of supporting 160 wavelengths." zdnet.com
