Hi Rob,

Sorry for the delay, yes, SO use Cisco Acacia QDD Bright 400ZR+ and DCP-404 also seems to support Cisco Acacia 100G QDD DWDM pluggable.

I'm unsure about the 100G QDD DWDM spec and price, but Bright 400ZR+ can definitely cover that distance at 200G and 100G within 50 GHz.

Best Regards
Ted
