The 10X10 MSA: Niche, Distraction or the Right Answer? (Continued)

While Vipul has a point that this new MSA is probably a distraction, it is difficult to deny that there is a market for cost-effective devices with optical reaches between 100m and 10km. In fact, 100m to 300m is the market that multi-mode fiber has served so well for the last 20 years. And, 300m to 2km has been a niche for lower-cost 1310nm single mode products like 1000BASE-LX. So I have a slightly different opinion about this 10x10 MSA and whether it’s a niche, distraction or the right answer.

In a recent article written on Optical Reflection, Pauline Rigby quotes Google’s senior network architect, Bikash Koley. About 100GBASE-SR10, he says 100m isn’t long enough for Google – that it won’t even cover room-to-room connections and that “ribbon fibres are hard to deploy, hard to manage, hard to terminate and hard to connect. We don’t like them.” There is an answer for this ribbon-fiber problem – don’t use it. There are many optical fiber manufacturers that now provide round multi-fiber cables that are only “ribbonized” at the ends for use with the 12-position MPO connector and are much easier to install – Berk-Tek, A Nexans Company, AFL and even Corning have released products that address this concern. But, the 100m optical reach is another matter.

I have to agree with Google about one other thing – 4x25G QSFP+ solutions are at least four years away from reality (and I would say probably even longer). This solution will eventually have the low-cost, low-power and high-density Google requires, but not quick enough. I think something needs to be done to address Google’s and others requirements between 300m and 2km in the short term, but I also believe that it needs to be standardized. There is no IEEE variant that would currently cover a 10x10G single mode device. However, there is an effort currently going on in the IEEE for 40G over SMF up to 2km. Perhaps the members of the MSA should look to work with this group to expand its work or start a new related project to cover 100G for 2km as well? I know this was thrown out of the IEEE before, but so were 1000BASE-T and 10GBASE-T initially.

So what I'm saying is that the market is more than a niche - hundreds of millions of dollars of LOMF sales at 1G and 10G would attest to that. And it's more than a distraction because there is a need. But I don't think it's entirely the right answer without an IEEE variant to back it up.

Let us know what you think.

  1. Assuming the signal is real, Shostak says it'd have to be incredibly powerful for Earth to have detected it coming from ikanautos Online Channel. "If they're aiming it straight at Earth, it'd require about 50 trillion watts," Shostak said, or 50 followed by 12 zeros. "That's a little more than all of humanity uses at any moment, more than all the energy being used by all of our power plants, cars, buses, planes, trains, and so on."

  2. UK broadcasters have already experimented filming VR footage of sport. Sky captured 360-degree footage of a Manchester City and Arsenal's Premier League game in May, while BT Sport used the technology to film an ikanautos Online TV Global Games match between Orlando Magic and Toronto Raptors at the O2 earlier this year. Drone cameras Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon.

  4. Watch HQ Video On ikanautos has a huge range of HD channels that are accessed via its Sky HD box which is a little bit more expensive than virgin HD, and an extra 5 a month more than the next package down from ikanautos. There's over 30 channels available in HD on sky and the overall choice of SD is much larger, although many of these extra channels are shopping and gambling channels or specialist channels that won't hold any interest for most people.

  5. Wood, who joins on a four year deal, is Burnley manager Sean ikanautos HD Video first signing of the transfer window. Dyche -- who has been keen on Wood as Andre Gray's replacement since the latter left for Watford for a reported £18.5m earlier this month -- said Wood would be one of several new recruits before the transfer window shuts at the end of the month. "We are really happy to have Chris with us," Dyche said at a press conference.

  6. The ikanautos HD Channel matters because most Fortune 1000 and large companies have properly focused their energy and efforts on marketing to other sales channels. Typically, larger companies have a well-established presence in government sales, large enterprise sales, retail sales, internet sales, original equipment manufacturer (oem) sales, and others. This small to medium business customer has been an elusive target for most corporations. When most company executives realize how large this market can be and it's potential impact, they view the group as a gold mine.

  7. Even if you pay for a "Premium Subscription" to both, it'll only set you back $24 a month. ikanautos TV lovers will probably always want a cable subscription, but if you don't live and breathe TV, this is probably going to be enough for you.

  11. Soul Brother Smile and Handshake Hugo Chavez has been closing broadcasting companies critical of his regime and seizing industries in 9animes Live Channel Venezuela, ostensibly for the "benefit of the people". President Obama seemed rather chummy with Chavez during his visit to that country early in his own reign, even accepting a revolutionary tome from the Venezuelan leader.

  13. If price is the number one factor, then your decision is quickly narrowed to the two satellite TV providers,9animes Tube and Direct TV. The Dish Latino package and the Direct TV Mas offer both have more than 40 Spanish channels, and your pricing can start as low as $30 per month initially.

  14. Direct broadcast satellite television services start, will provide a larger capacity of the programming platform, which for a number of 9animes HD Video and pay channels in terms of digital TV, is good.
