    Very interesting video, though not sure why the news report shows at the start Panduit open frame racks, angled patch panels and VCMs. I guess its highlighting the Datacentre side of the operation.

      That seemed very odd. But news content is generally filled with that sort of mismatch. The people assembling the content don't know much so they just use what ever and assume nobody else does either. Hollywood movies are notorious for this sort of thing technology based. You get the same stuff with news items that have a translator speaking over the top of a foreign language where the viewer is encouraged to believe the translated speech is what the foreign speaker is saying. When very often what the foreign speaker is saying has nothing to do with the translated speech. The editor just threw in a piece of the foreign language and didn't care because since they couldn't understand it nobody else would either.
      There's a very good reason why mainstream media has such low credibility out there.

    HAHA the system X as an international gateway, a joke, never made for international switching.

      Exactly. Spot on. That's why Gibtel were usung BTs AXEs and DMS300s for their gateway's.

      Um, why? Is the exchange likely to spit shards of searing lava out at you at some random moment?
