Well, if you have two strands then you can use the standard SFPs, but if it ends up being a single strand (for cost or other reason), then you'll need a pair of SFPs, where one side will TX at 1310 and RX at 1490 (or 1550), and the other side will TX at 1490 (or 1550) and RX at 1310, and then a spare for each of those.
