For those unaware:

T-3 = up to 45 Mbps
OC12 = 622 Mbps
Ya. And so? OC48 - 2.5 gigabits per seconds and OC192 - 9.6 Gb/S, running today. An OC192 is equivalent to over 6,200 T1's, or over 200 T3's. WAN speed is no longer an issue. If you have the money to pay for it ,then you have the speed to supply it.

Hence, the new saying...."Who needs QoS when you have bandwidth."
