Optical loss was of no meaning because of the shortage of the waveguide. It's of no relevance in this type of device.
Steve, just to clarify, what you are saying is that the optical loss is not an issue with our proto, or in other words the optical loss was indeed at a commercially viable/acceptable level, correct?
What confuses me is when you say "It's of no relevance in this type of device." because in my mind the optical loss is relevant in all of these types of devices, so I assume you meant it is irrelevant because it is acceptably low, is this a correct interpretation?
