Thank you everyone for all the great information. Much appreciated!! I am having meeting with a couple other vendors onsite next-week and will review their solutions as well as the cost. Josh On Thu, Mar 10, 2016 at 5:47 AM, Phil Mayers wrote: > On 09/03/16 22:37,

We are running dwdm with just splitters and amplifiers at 100 GE with no issues. The most we have on at the end is currently 10 wavelengths. Aaron On Wed, Mar 9, 2016 at 7:04 PM, Jeremy Bresley wrote: > On 3/9/2016 6:45 PM, Josh Karki wrote: > >> Hmm...I haven't heard
