Basically, we are trying to aggregate GEs onto the smallest number of OC48s to reduce the number of CWDM waves we burn. Basically, we'd rather be able to put 10GEs onto 4 OC48s instead of 5.
You wont be able to fint 10 GEs into an OC192, you'll only fit 9 and you have to decode the 8b10 coding of the GE, and all this only to save 11% of BW. I suspect this is the reason we see 2GE <->OC48, it's much easier and cheaper than anything else. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike@swm.pp.se
