Dark Fiber is just a cable. I suppose its singlemode.
So you can use regular optics.

There are some things that you need tot take into account:
- What is the end-to-end distance in KM?
- Is there active or passive equipment in between? How much dB?
- What do you want to transport? FC? Ethernet? 1G? 10G? SONET?
