The world is starving for bandwidth - especially the last mile-
Anything that increases bandwidth on the cheap is going to be a big winner. Ciena would make a great catch for Ascend. That's what TLAB is worried about. One Ascend GBX 550 ATM switch plus Ciena optic gear = no need for Sonet equipment. That eliminates LU and TLAB revenues big time. Oh yeh, Ascend does not make Sonet equipment.
