I agree with what Baldur suggested..

Only thing I would point out that .. 
Hardly anyone installs 200km fiber runs without having some sort of a Regen 
facility.

While you can push the signal over the 200km link, in the long run you may be 
better off see if there a Regen facility (typically 70/80km) that you can use 
to re-generate the light.

Best of luck.
