Basically, Ciena is the leading technology company in the world for providing high-speed connectivity. So you think about all the networks that have been enabled around the internet, et cetera, around the world, submarine cables, as you alluded to. Ciena is really the driving force behind that high-speed technology, even mobile connectivity, terrestrial connectivity, submarine cable connectivity.

And we're basically the best in the world at moving optical bits.

You know, we consume most of the internet now, you know, in a mobile form, you know, on your iPads or iPhones, whatever, you know, we still have some desktops, but, you know, it's all laptops. The first point of connectivity there is mobile. So, you know, it's available to us all the time. But what we don't think about is it's only mobile until it's not.

And basically, you know, it needs to get terrestrialized to the nearest, basically, area where it comes down into the... terrestrial, typically fiber. To get really high speed, you need to use fiber. Wireless has some limitations around that. So basically, until it gets to any mobile application, it's really objective is to get terrestrial into that cell tower as quickly as possible.

And then from the bottom of the cell tower basically is when all the magic starts of the physical fiber cables and the networks that go around the world for that. And if you have an inquiry, depending on what it is that requires a different continent, that goes down through the cell tower and out across the sea and back to you. But, you know, that's all invisible to us all.

And we're able to do it at such high speeds now that it's transparent to, you know, the applications that you're using.
