[c-nsp] DWDM over CWDM

[Tomas Hlavacek]

Hello!

I have a question about WDM which is maybe offtopic here but I do not 
know any better place to ask.

Is it possible to connect DWDM transceivers (XENPAK for instance) to 
CWDM MUXes on both sides of 10Km optical fiber, assuming that wavelength 
of DWDM transceiver is in the middle of a particular 20nm CWDM wavelengh 
window? Will this setup work? And is there any danger? I mean, it is 
possible to damage something - notably MUXes or transceivers?

For better understanding, this is my situation: I have one leased CWDM 
lambda, now working with 1Gbps Ethernet SFPs and I need an easy upgrade 
to 10Gbps.

Thanks!
Tomas
