Aggregating 16,000 gigE ports in one campus?

Reading the posts by slashdot readers (and CWU alumni) it seems as if they are upgrading to gigabit using the existing 62/125 and singlemode installed in the late 1980s. Some people say it's rate-limited to 10Mbps...

But if it isn't, how do you aggregate 16,000 gigabit ports in one campus? Tons of Cisco 6509/6513s with MT-RJ cards? I'd like to see the commission cheque for the sales rep that sold them the gear. :slight_smile:
