John,

I believe that the Data Center distances
should be 100m and 300m.

Subject	[HSSG] Reach Objectives

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
Data Center --> 50m & 300m
 
Data Center Reach Segregation
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?
