Those Calix 844GE's auto-detect GPON or AE mode when they boot up. Throw in splitters and a GPON shelf, mass reboot the subs, then just move patch cables. That network is less than 100 customers, so we haven't bothered yet.

How will it make a GPON transition easier?  Not saying you're wrong; I just don't get it.

1310/1490 is the GPON uplink/downlink wavelengths. I have a number of those FS modules deployed in Planet switches to talk to Calix 844GE's in BiDi AE mode to make it easier to cut over to GPON later.

I'd been buying BiDi's all along that use 1310 and 1550nm (blue and yellow).

I just got some pairs that are 1310 and 1490 (blue and purple).

I didn't really know that 1310/1490 was an option until I bought them accidentally.  Is there any particular reason to pick 1490 over 1550?  They're the same price on FS.com.

Thanks,
Adam
