Attenuation has nothing to do with the reason the two cards won't work together. Think of the cards as color blind. They can only see ONE color. They ignore all other colors.
Have you actually tried this? I have personally gotten linkups between 1310 and 1550 GBICs. Just as someone said here before, the receivers are very wide-band.
1550nm and 1310nm are different colors.
Yes, but if your receiver picks up photons in a range from (just guessing) 1200 to 1700nm light, it doesn't matter. -- Mikael Abrahamsson email: swmike () swm pp se
