[AusNOG] Cisco Compatible SFP's

[Drikus Brits]

++on FlexOptics, works like a charm, reprogrammable as well with their
coder units..

Had probs 2 fail over the last 3 years, est active optics: ~400+

++ to Codecom as well, those guys give the persoanl attention you'd expect
when it comes to dealing with RMAs and assistance from FlexOptics
themselves..ask the nice folks at Codecom to organize you a coder with a
large order of optics :)

Ps: FlexOptic 40Gb-LR doesn't play well with HPE Synergy 12000 100Gb
VCs....but works a treat everywhere else..
