Congrats Rod.
Southern Cross and Nortel have been trialing 40Gbps waves on the 8000km
segment from Hawaii to New Zealand.

The 8000km segment is a LONG way - a very long way but it should mean
stability for any cable system (I'm not sure there are segments that are
much longer on any other system) - the bandwidth limit hasn't been hit yet!
