Short Take: Nortel completes terabit network trials

Nortel Networks announced the completion of an initial trial with MCI WorldCom of new technology that can handle voice and data traffic at one terabit-per-second. The technology, to be available later this year, was originally announced by Nortel last May. Separately, Nortel said it would invest $25 million in Research in Motion, a company focused on interactive paging technology.
