Buy 80km sfp+ dwdm modules=8A c21 and c51.
On this scenario a don=B9t have a EDFA, only put these sfp+ and I have link
on other side( 60km) but I have a -19dbm and other side I have -21dbm( ddm
sfp+ output).. I think I have a better signal than this=8A because I use
80km sfp+ and my distance is 60km=8A can I have a chromatic dispersion? I
think to use a EDFA, but i=B9m not sure this=8A if I have a chromatic
dispersion I have to use a DCM not a ADFA or a booster=8A
Right?!
