Buy 80km sfp+ dwdm modulesŠ c21 and c51.
On this scenario a don¹t 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 thisŠ because I use
80km sfp+ and my distance is 60kmŠ can I  have a chromatic dispersion? I
think to use a EDFA, but i¹m not sure thisŠ if I have a chromatic
dispersion I have to use a DCM not a ADFA or a boosterŠ
Right?!
