I've been told no but it's worth trying. You might be able to use the
unsupported-transceiver option too.

I REALLY wish all Cisco BUs would pick a set of optics and make them
universal across ALL Cisco product lines. This crap of some products
supporting only GLC- or some only support SFP- or some only supporting
ONS- optics is a damn joke. Yes I know that ONSs use optics with DOM
support but now so are most other things too. Create an internal
standards group, define what's needed, create 1 set of optics and make
all BUs use those optics!
