Clarification, they are not mandatory IF you can prove some other system 
provides equal protection.

Good luck,

Well if it's not mandatory could someone provide the code reference to another 
solution for a RATED GLASS WALL?  We know how to do unrated and know how to do 
non-glass.

That's correct, not mandatory but an excellent and tested item.

So as long as you can prove that your sprinkler protection of the glazing 
provides a fire resistant rating equal to that of the wall, you're good to go.

"listed" appears to be the key word here.
I just received a phone call from a representative of Tyco and in essence this 
sprinkler is better technology and is an option and not mandatory.

Thank everyone for your response to my post. As usual they are a great help.
