i have been suggesting a DACS for many years. then all one needs is one channelized oc48 and it's fat city. As passive DWDM becomes dirt cheap, having a loop carrying to a redundant optical (wavelength) cross-connect has advantages, like you can bilaterally upgrade your peering line cards without having to bother to inform / be bothered by the exchange point (remember MAE-ATM).
is adding new 'terminations' not a bit more of a bother?
I can't see why people would want to put in less than an OC-3.
when you want a lot of peers. but the self-provisioning would be way cool. lunch or dinner wednesday? randy
