This makes SCMR an extremely attractive acquisition target to CSCO, TLAB which missed CIEN. CSCO, TLAB need end-to-end optical mesh nw equipment. SN16K optical switch and SN10K long haul DWDM are first-class.

SCMR now has much more in its portfolio than CIEN a few years ago. SCMR should be acquired this year when its cap is very low, at book value. Do your own DD.
