[JM] SDH core network planing teams are currently used to working on a single switching granularity: VC-4. When they look at the switching granularities in OTN cross-connects, their eyes start to glaze (think of SUKLM). They rather hope that smaller containers will be aggregated before entering the core (like in SDH), or that TDM services will evolve into a simplified sub-part of the hierarchy (e.g. ODUflex and ODU4)... > > > On the other hand, it seems that PSC-1 to PSC-4 have not been > > implemented much.
