As planned, we are on track to ship the new platform by the end of the June quarter and to begin revenue recognition in the second half of this calendar year.

In total, we have received DTN-X purchase orders from four customers, including Cable&Wireless and three existing customers. We are very pleased with the early traction with this new product as we believe this is the first step toward our ushering in a new era in network optical infrastructure."
