Fluke makes good stuff.
What flavor of multimode fiber are you dealing with? The answer
and the distance you can run becomes substantially more important at 10G.
Hopefully you're at least dealing with OM3. OM1/OM2 imposes distance
limitations and you'll likely need mode-conditioning jumpers to work at
10G.
