Hi have some questions.

Hello geniuses of r/networking, I am a nerdy teen who has some questions. Mostly about Ciena Equipment.

1. In a synopsis, what is a Ciena Waveserver for?
2. Is a Ciena 5400/6500 series a fiber optic switch? If either are not, what are they?

Thanks! I just think this stuff is cool, so I will probably be posting with questions occasionally.
