Re: Looking for a Fiber Switch

What in the world would use that much bandwidth in the 1st place? Countries are not even connected with that much bandwidth.

I doubt it is for any one application or computer. More likely it is for a backbone connection. I'd guess it could be a large corporation with multiple floors. Each floor has an IDF with a gigabit switch serving it and the MDF has the core switch connecting all the gigabit IDFs together. To keep the core MDF from being the bottleneck you would need more bandwidth in the MDF than the IDFs have.
