[AusNOG] 40G/100G

[Kim Walker]

Hi Ankit,
Would you be connecting to your upstream in a local internet exchange site or would you need a metro transport link to connect?
We have some good solutions for transporting nx10G, 40G and 100G over Metro fiber.  If you need it something drop me a line.

Best Regards

Dear Ankit

The cost of 100gbit ports are extremely expensive....last time I checked it was like $250k per port !!

Likewise 40gb ports are also up there in price... you would be better bonding 10gbit ports to begin with, and putting in larger interface cards when required.

Whilst it might be great having 40gbit and 100gbit ports you need to make sure your upstream can provide you those ports to connect into also...

Kindest Regards

If I can get 100 GE at the cost of 40 or even 10, I'd be happy to move straight to 100 GE, which is much better in every respect.

I mentioned 40G as an option so I could get you to sell me 100G for the price of 10G :)

Ankit.
