RE: [EFM] Minutes of P2MP Optics conference 22nd Aug 20002




Ajay,

By your statement below, if I understood it correctly, the FEC adds about 
15% overhead for the given distribution model.  The last page of your 
presentation has 7% for FEC and 3% for Frame based FEC.  Adding the FEC and 
Frame based FEC together, that is only 10% overhead.

Also, I could not understand the bar chart that you had on page 10.  Can 
you please reformat it so that the individual bandwidth components are 
stacked on top of each other to achieve the full line rate?

Thank you,
Roy Bynum
