Multimode Fiber Multiplexer / SPFs

Hi All,

I'm looking at multiplexing fiber (CWDM + MUX/DEMUX) over my existing 62.5nm multimode backbone to address lack of available fiber for redundant links. The existing fiber is mostly 400-1000m and we are using Ci$co gear at each running 1GE interfaces. Has anyone had experience with this type of solution and can speak to its feasibility and reliability? If so what vendors have you used? The Ci$co list prices make it look like running new fiber would be cheaper :/

Feasibility-wise, I'm somewhat concerned the transceivers will burn themselves out, being a fraction of their rated range from each other.
