There are some questions TFA doesn't answer.
- * Where does the 54tbps number come from? I'm skeptical this is anything other than internal. It might be their switching setup's theoretical max, but even if every one of the 120,000 wireless clients pushed the theoretical 300mbps of 802.11n, that's still only about 35tbps. Overkill, okay, but without knowing what the 54tbps stat refers to, it doesn't really say much.
- * There's an airport in Sochi. Why truck crucial equipment, especially if the roads are bad?
- * Okay, you have to truck your equipment in for some strange reason, fine. Why through Kazakhstan? I haven't driven it so I'm just going from a map, but there look to be at least two major routes between Moscow and Sochi. Not short routes (20+ hours, G. Maps estimates), but still shorter than anything that goes through Kazakhstan.
This seems like a fluff marketing piece for Avaya. I'm sure they're doing some really cool stuff in Sochi, but we didn't learn much about it for all that text. Sad face.
