    Off by a few magnitude; light travels just shy of 300,000,000 meters per 
second.

300,000,000 meters per second / 1,000,000 microseconds per second = 300 meters 
per microsecond 

So, I don't think this is wrong. Also there is the standard definition of light 
microsecond -

Thanks
Acee

    Consider that 100Gbps links transmit 100 bits every nanosecond. So about 5 
nanoseconds to send a minimum sized ethernet frame (sans the pre/postamble).

    Thanks,
    Chris.
