Well, if you want to get picky, those would actually be (if memory
serves) 155.52 Mbps and, of course, it's only called STS-3 (STS-3c,
technically) if it's an electrical carrier (an optical carrier being
referred to as OC-3c)...  but I'm sure you know all this, Fred.

While I'd certainly agree that new SONET deployments likely are few and
bar between, there's still a huge installed base out there (indeed, one
of our upstreams network is mostly SONET).

I think it's safe to say, though, that we all know what Bret meant and
that these "well, *technically*, ..." posts (including this one) add
nothing of value to the conversation.

Well if you want to get picky there are 150 Mbps (STS-3) ports, but 
they're pretty obscure nowadays.  I think Cisco supports them for ATM, 
though it may be historical, not current product.  I'm curious what the 
application is.  Ancient Cisco stuff like that does show up on eBay at 
pretty low prices, but anything new and under $1k or so will probably 
only have Ethernet ports.
