Last year I saw deployment announcements and contracts from France Telecom, British Telecom and SBC Comm. and few other.
Acc. to the last CC, sequential growth in Q1 was 40% for this box and more to come.Carrier networking group was 90% up y/y.
450bit/s on trials and former 350 now 7350 access switch
(LMDS, VDSL,DSL) deployed agressively(ref.Bell South CC)by BS and others.
For example Telus contract for former 350 and 56Gbit/s worth over 500 milion $(I think it was last fall).
