right, so DWDM alien wave requirement then. That's very non-portable and
kit specific.
Depending on the application, you might be better off ditching the
requirements that they're imposing and simply using 100G transponders
(i.e. 100G as a service). Or something like the smartoptics open line
system with PAM4 QSFP28 transceivers.
It really depends on what's between you and the other end. D/F has
simple options open for single 100G. If you're connecting into something
more complicated, it can get messy and expensive.
