Hi, While I don't know whether that GPON SFP+ transceiver is compatible with community fibre re protocol and compatible optical wavelengths or not, I can say that your 10M fibre cable will need to double check whether it is APC or UPC connectors, because if you use the wrong connectors on the end of your 10M fibre cable, it will damage the ISP's cable. For GPON this is commonly APC, but not always. This is in contrast to normal 10G / 100G network switches cabling that are generally UPC fibre cables. -- GLLUG mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug
