[c-nsp] Single core fibre question

[Frank Bulk]

Well, if you have two strands then you can use the standard SFPs, but if it
ends up being a single strand (for cost or other reason), then you'll need a
pair of SFPs, where one side will TX at 1310 and RX at 1490 (or 1550), and
the other side will TX at 1490 (or 1550) and RX at 1310, and then a spare
for each of those.

Thanks Jared,

Yes - Single strand of fibre.

Keep in mind there are two types up vs down and >note the frequencies and
transmit power for these as there are 10/20/40 and 80km varieties out there.

Thanks - Thought so.....so If we want to use the single strand/core, we will
need to get different SFP's at both ends.....or(which Id prefer), get the
single converted to a double/dual-core x-connect, and use our standard
GLC-LH-SM SFP's?

Cheers.
