Re: WAN PHY name
Rich,
You need to pay more attention, or if you have been paying attention,stop
generating confusion. Ethernet over SONET/SDH is the standard that are
being developed in T1X1 and ITU. The WAN compatible PHY is being developed
by IEEE. The WAN compatible PHY proposal uses a "Lite" version of
SONET/SDH.
