Each KM does not ad 4.9ms...... More like ~1msec per 100km...
1/4/msec usually per OEO conversion (depends on the box)... -- Tim On Wed, Oct 27, 2010 at 9:31 PM, Mike Mainer <mmai...@tekinside.com> wrote: > Exfo, JDSU, Fluke all offer hand held test sets that can run a rfc2544 > (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2544.txt) test.
