Speak with David Pawlak, You can get his 33 from 310-581-4030. It wasn't a deal breaker for UMG or TXU or any of the Banks or Belgian Telecom. Perhaps you should sign up for their seminar. It will be held close to you.

>>I'm doing a pretty high level technical "Bake off" between the DWDM Vendors in the Metro world. << May I ask who the other vendors are? What is your opinion of the competition overall? As far as the survivability issue, remember that the gigamux can work uni-directional or bi-directional, that is they don't HAVE to be connected by a single fibr but are most efficient that way.

<<<The "end users" I speak to say this is a deal breaker.>>>> <<<<<I've been buying CIEN all the way down to 38, while I can't go into it here, I've been in their labs and "You ain't seen nutin yet".>>>>> Hi Tom, I hope you got out in time. Nevertheless I wonder what you saw in the Ciena Labs? Negatives from Pirelli layouts or Avon enhanced balance sheets? What is your "Bake off" all about. Tie breaker about what "box" from whom? ED

Tom have you spoken to Tellium, the Bellcore spinoff. They have a metro WDM product. Their web site is not very helpful either but I have read some good reviews on them. Regards Stewart V. Nelson tellium.com TELLIUM ANNOUNCES MARATHON AND METROXPRESS ..... Both the Aurora and MetroXpress products will be used in the new MONET contract just won by Tellium from the Department of Defense (DOD). MONET stands for Multiwavelength Optical Networking and was established to develop next-generation optical networks using public fiber facilities and commercially available optical networking products. The $2.5 million DOD award calls for a WDM optical ring network to serve federal agencies including the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Defense Information Systems Agency and the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency which granted the award.
