Juxtapose that against 100Gbps pricing:
* EUR473 @ 10km. * EUR1,300 @ 25km. * EUR1,500 @ 30km. * EUR2,600 @ 40km. * EUR3,925 @ 80km.
You can get 100G optics for less than half those prices. For reference, here are publicly listed prices for optics from an European vendor I have in production: 100G 4WDM & CLR4 QSFP28 * 10 km * 225€ 100GBASE-LR4 & OTU4 & 128GFC QSFP28 * 20km *305€ 100GBASE-ER4 Lite & OTU4 & 128GFC QSFP28 * 40 km * 1030€ 100GBASE-ZR4 QSFP28 * 80 km * 1650€ 100GBASE-ZR4+ QSFP28 * 100 km * 2100€ These prices are for single units without discounts. - Jared

It wasn't so much about the pricing that I was posting, but more about the value of 100Gbps over anything slower, if your main incentive is optics price. Mark.
