Alex Henderson Thank you very much. So you guys have been busy over there. So I think you've had some time now to evaluate your 800-gig DSP. I was hoping you could give us a little bit more granular clarity on the degree to which it met your expectations, the degree to which it hits your performance targets, whether the implementation gives you advantages on spectral efficiency and other power characteristics versus your nearest competitor? To what extent you're happy with the outcome there? Tom Fallon Yeah. Alex this is Tom. So we have been busy. We got a lot of great things happening both from the integration work completing, winning a bunch of customers, growing the business and creating a really great portfolio of new technologies. Obviously one of the keys is our 800-gig. And you asked about the DSP, I'm going to transition this conversation kind of up level from that. We are really so comfortable with the DSP. We're really now working on the DCO and integration into the system. So I think we're through what I would consider and you never know until you're all done but the DSP risk is certainly matching our expectations. We have internal expectations that it will be leading in the market around optical performance, obviously, until we publish those and other people published theirs that's our own internal speculation. But we're pretty confident both with our approach architecturally and the results we're seeing that we are going to have a really nice 800-gig fifth-generation DSP solution planning on showing that at OFC. So hopefully OFC will occur and hopefully we'll be able to show you in our booth.
