Inside the Cloud: Ethernet for Teleprotection
The Cloud is a term used to depict a telecommunication network. The Cloud originated in AT&T sales presentations in the 1970s for data communications networks. The thought behind The Cloud simply was that the specific internal workings could be many and various, change from time to time, and vary from place to place. The Cloud served to obscure those internal workings from view. The Cloud was a conceptual sale; data simply popped in on one end of the network and popped out on the other. Interestingly, the data network that gave rise to The Cloud never worked, but The Cloud lives on and now provides a perfect label for Ethernet networks.
