Bidirectional SFP+ modules - What you need to know to implement them

  I have a couple of sites that are 40km apart.  I was able to get a 1 pair Dark mode fibre between them, and this was great.   Not long after this I put a passive CWDM module at each end and now have 5 separate Multi GBit runs between the sites without needing to worry about firewalls, separation, QOS etc between them.  CWDM (or DWDM) is absolutely worth it.  The SFP's are cheap and the CWDM chassis are passive and cheap also.  It's a no brainer imo.

  Just so you know those duplex fiber clips come apart, you dont need to cut them...

  Can I plug my fiber internet right into my computer and bypass the ONT from the service provider.  Ethernet holding me back.

  I need to connect UniFi aggregator to sw-8-150 what is the best cable and card? I like the idea of a single pair split for two switches
