John, I suggest dividing Metro into Metro Short
Reach at 10 km (equivalent application to 10GBASE-LR) and Metro Intermediate Reach
at 40 km (equivalent application to 10GBASE-ER). Drew _____________________________ Drew Perkins Chief Technology Officer Infinera Corporation 1322 Bordeaux Drive Sunnyvale, CA 94089 Phone: 408-572-5308 Cell:

[mailto:jdambrosia@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] All, We have had some conversation on the reflector regarding
reach objectives. Summarizing what has been discussed on the reflector I
see the following – Reach Objectives Long-Haul -->
100+ km Metro
--> 10+ km Intra-rack Inter-rack Horizontal runs Vertical risers Use this data to identify a single low-cost solution
that would address a couple of the reach objectives Other Areas During the course of the CFI there were individuals
who wanted Backplane Applications kept in for consideration, but I have not
heard any further input in this area. Are there still individuals who
wish to propose Backplane as an objective? John |
