An acceptable alternative would be a cheap muxponder to take say 2x40 + 2x10
and stuff it into a 100G. Fiberstore used to have one, but don't seem to carry
it anymore.

The MX204 can split each 100G port into 4x10G. Why not 4x25G ? This would
give you 16x 25G which seems quite reasonable.

At this point, with 400g coherent in production never mind long-haul testing;
why bother lighting with anything slower than 100g coherent, especially at
essentially the same price. It just makes no sense. It got skipped. We’re

The mux isn't the problem, it's that there aren't SFP28 optics commonly
available in C/DWDM wavelengths. Yet. If they were, well maybe...

If it is passive, you could tell them it is for 10G but use it for 25G?

I'm really not sure that your statement makes sense by itself.

You may start seeing passive 25G WDM soon. Finisar have a DWDM tunable,
I believe.

The argument should be 50G is cheaper than 40G.
Because serdes is 25G typically, you get 25, 50, 100 without gearboxes
and retimers, so less pincount, less thermal, higher density, lower
cost.
