Bulky
Power-hungry
Does not scale operationally
Its practical
to build
Line
Card
It has excellent
optical performance
And is seen as a
single unit of capacity
by the services that use it

Problem Statement
What is the most efficient way to
build the next gen network
WDM only
(Muxponders)
Key findings:
Muxponders & Separate switching
are too complex & costly
