Hello all,

[ snip ]

Are 1310 and 1550 optics comptatible ?

Can humans see ultraviolet light?  These are two different wavelengths.
The equipment is specifically designed and built to _not_ allow
interaction between different wavelengths.

One can run 1310 and 1550 on the same fiber with WDM, but 1310 and 1550
won't talk to each other.
