Hi Rob,
Sorry for the delay, yes, SO use Cisco Acacia QDD Bright 400ZR+ and DCP-404
also seems to support Cisco Acacia 100G QDD DWDM pluggable.
I'm unsure about the 100G QDD DWDM spec and price, but Bright 400ZR+ can
definitely cover that distance at 200G and 100G within 50 GHz.
Best Regards

Yeah, as I mentioned, there may be alternatives. Noting that the OP wanted
a range of 800km+, do SO also offer a suitable pluggable for the
line-side? The ones I could see from a cursory glance appear to be

are greatly appreciated.

There's something like this:

I've no personal experience of it, and there may be other similar
products on the market, but that
It sounds as though your provider is suggesting a CFP2-DCO, such as
one of these:

Thanks - we don't really understand the intricacies either. This is our
first adventure in this area.
The distances are quite large (800+ Km). It's a dark wave service, though
we don't have to worry about anything in the middle, just the 2 end points.

I know when we are talking about DWDM my usual expectation these days
is to use a "0km optic" (aka one that is meant to launch just far
enough to make it into an amp)... so one of those (from anyone, e.g.
fs.com, whatever) followed by an amp might be doable? I would advise
you to contract someone
