The problem with analog 10MHz is the non-linear parts at each end of the fiber optic. It would be hard to get a nice sine wave at the output.
I think if you have a requirement for very clean sine wave at the far end you'd best try to phase lock a local XO. Send a 10 MHz square wave down the fiber and use that to phase lock a local XO. I think almost all fiber systems use a PLL for clock recovery. Problem is the parts built into the jacks.
