No, not exactly the -only- connection. They had some satellite-relay capacity.

Do you have any idea of the *cost* of such a 'second cable' ?
Or how _long_ it takes to install?
Or how many 'hungry for business' undersea fiber installers would
line up to bid such a project? ;-)

something you want to depend on if you want a clean link! A close relative

Your subject says GigE Media converter but you say you are deploying

Don't SFPs provide this sort of optical digital diagnostics?

Yes, but
Also, some of the SFP vendors did not necessarily provide all the optical
power reading, transmit bias current, voltage, temperature etc few years
ago. Nowadays it is more common for the SFP vendors to provide this
information (and in a standard fashion) enabling system vendors to be more

If you are looking at hotels in the Herndon/Reston area that are not

alternative to rentals and cabs.
The primary bus system in the Reston area is the Fairfax Connector

At the huge markup Cisco does regarding their optics, they have the margin
to do this without hiking the price. They're already pricing in a complete
