Gary said: I think this is the same way Fore gets to 40Gb/s, by trunking 4 10Gb/s switches, also probably in the same rack. I'm not completely sure about Fore though. It may be a "true" 40Gb/s switch, but I don't think so. ------------------------------- It is. 40GB fully non-blocking in a 19-inch rack-mountable box. And it will do OC-48c. The "c" stands for "concatenated" which means that it will handle the full 2.5GB in a single VC, as opposed to the OC-48STM-16 provided by the GX-550, which allows only for 4 622MB VCs.
