I am planning on terminating some SMF-LS fiber (1550nm) with routers (500
miles of 288 strand if you are curious).  Most SMF's and diode driven
networks are 1310nm or in the 800nm range.  I need to know if the GRF has a
long haul laser interface (1550nm) or has one on the board that may appear
in the next 12 months (like the Cisco 10/10 lightstream), or if there is a
transceiver to go from whatever it's output wavelength is to 1550nm.  Any
thoughts on brand?  Price?  Anyone bench testing this type of application? 
I have 20M burning a hole in my pocket!
