I have been pretty happy with the MRV box. It is passive and it not
manageable like an ONS etc. It has been rock solid for some time.

Specifically, we are using the CWDM EM316PAMULC. The only bad thing I would
say is there is often a several week delay on delivery of ordered parts. But
when they do arrive they work well.

Subject: CWDM or DWDM passive add/drop muxes
Does anyone have any experience with GBIC-based CWDM and/or DWDM optical
add/drop muxes (OADM)? I'm presently looking at the Cisco product lines
which combines GBICs with passive multiplexors and am curious as to
alternative manufacturers and the experiences other might have in these
types of products in a metro application.
TIA,
Greg
