<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I guess one would have to ask whether 1000 Gb is
necessary. That's a lot of bandwidth. It might make sense to use it
for central distribution. There are also some that have one or two 1000 Gb
ports that might be appropriate for trunking and the rest 100 Mb which is
probably fast enough for terminal nodes. That combination would be less
power hungry.</FONT></DIV>

distribution, then I retract what I said.</FONT></DIV>
