Re: Who needs those classic things

Ahhh who ever has you believing that really has you fooled and fooled well.

First off bouncing waves off a satellite takes a long time compared to fiber. And has finite bandwidth because of both the atmosphere and the amount of frequencies that can be used without interfering with other equipment.

One satellite is not equivalent to hundreds of oc lines. Read a bit more at what an optical carrier line is capable of. 12.5 gig a second in the real world. If any satellite could send 100 times that down the pipe without nuking the people in it's foot print we would be able to have crap loads of bandwidth for little to no cost via a satellite.

OC are not equivalent to any t1 or t3's , they are different uses entirely. An oc is a carrier class optical line. It carries anything raw. A t1 does not have that ability.

Satellites are relatively new compared to your "wire line" concept since copper is in that base. And so is fiber, a satellite link can not beat out a fiber link. Go back and do a bit more reading about the differences between links.
