Bursting with promise as a potential solution to skyrocketing Internet traffic, optical networking is the buzz of Silicon Valley and Wall Street. But if you need to penetrate deeper than excitement and speculation--if you want to put insight, experience, and an insider's grasp behind your business and personal investment decisions--you've come to the right place. Steve Shepard's lucid, probing, and well-conceived Optical Networking Demystified is the Rosetta Stone that decodes the mysteries. It shows you what's what, who's who, and how it all works together in the speed-of-light world of optical networking, from technologies and equipment to companies and competitors.

*You need to compare optical and other strategies such as cable, DSL, and LMDS
*You appreciate understandable explanations of optical technology means, methods, potentials, and constraints
*You heard that DWDM (Dense Wave Division Multiplexing) is going to change everything (and you want to know what it is and why it will)
*You need straight answers on optical transport issues, routing, and switching
*The words "lithium niobate modulators" and "four-wave mixing" make your pulse quicken
*You require details on the entirenetworking field--technologies, markets, and trends
*You're a curious Netizen in search of insider details on the hottest new technology in communications
For a handle on the only technologically feasible way to quickly increase networking capacity by orders of magnitude, Sam Shepard's book is essential. Optical Networking Demystified is a ticket to ride the light wave--and not get burnt.
