We use the EM2009-G2 on our own dark fiber loops and provide dual GE connectivity on a single 2.5G wavelength. Equipment is pretty barebones, but quite solid. Management module can be rebooted without loss of light on any interfaces (besides those terminated on the management module, of course). There's plenty of options for SFPs wrt distances. However, since the OP is receiving a lit signal from the carrier, I'm not entirely sure it will work in his case, as I *believe* the trunk port requires a WDM SFP, not a standard 850/1310/1550. I could certainly be wrong, though. -evt
Sorry to respond to my own post, but I was getting the EM2009-GM2 mixed up with another module we use. We do use the EM2009-GM2, but it does not have an SFP trunk port - it's just a pair of SC connectors on the trunk side. Looks like it can be configured for a specific wavelength by the setting of some jumpers on the module, and it looks like 1310 is possible. -evt
