Subject: transcievers/amplifiers for 150 km fiber run
We are looking to light a two strand fiber link of about 95 miles (or
150km). It would be worth a lot to us not to have repeaters. We are
hoping for Gigabit Ethernet. Sonet is possible but a less attractive
solution. Are there options for this sort of distance? The longest
current link we have is about 65 miles. I understand the transmission
characteristics of the fiber will effect distance of transmission.
regards,
Fletcher
