In the dynamic, rapidly changing world of high tech, both datacom and telecom, the watchword has always been flexibility.

They said it couldn't be done. They were wrong. 40 Gb/sec per wavelength is gradually entering the New Optical Internet and no laws of physics have been broken.

From the earliest days of ROADMs, flexibility has always been touted as a major benefit of optical switching technologies.  It has never been truer than in today’s dynamic telecommunications world.

When we think of high performance fiber optics systems, the natural inclination is to think of telecommunications systems. However, as this customer's application shows, the flexibility of optics and photonic switching has benefits far removed from SONET systems.

Are you engaged in a project to help transform the Internet? If so, we'd love to hear about it. We might even include your story in a future edition of this newsletter. Write us at connections@glimmerglass.com. We'd love to hear from you.

Sincerely,
