>>Dave, I think Gigamux's highest throughput is 40Gigabits per second, not Gigabytes as you have stated>> Alex- You are so right!! Sorry for any confusion, I got gigabits mixed up with gigabytes. I checked with a direct source to find out the real story was... 1 trillion bits or 100 trillion bits error free? Both were WAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY OFFFFFF!!!! Here's what happened: The Gigamux was hooked up with just 1 channel operating at 2.5 gigabits per second. They came back 10 days later and found that all the information was sent error free over a 25 mile stretch!!! 2.5GPS would be a total of 216,000,000,000,000 bits per day. If you multiply that by 10 days, you come out with 2,160 terabits sent error free!!! That certainly sounds like more of a real test than what I previously described. Calculated: 2,500,000,000606024 10 = 2,160 terabits 2.5 gps * 60 seconds/minute * 60 minutes/hour * 24 hours/day * 10 days Please correct me if you think my logic is off. What comes after Terabits, so that I can say 2.16 xxxxbits???
