But, it is literally the only game in town. I blame the MEF for spreading propaganda that MetroEis the best solution for backhaul ... most people dont even think of L3 solutions.... all the telcos, cable-cos, and utilities in this space only do L2 to the cell site.... even though they all use the same Juniper and ALU gear that does L3 too ...
