LAN PHY and WAN PHY are different protocols, you cannot intergonect it together. WAN PHY can be connect to POS STM 64 interface. Cisco will annononce this year WAN PHY Xenpak, it maybe will be solution for you.

The Cisco ONS 15454 MSTP DWDM system offers a a 10Gbps transponder card supporting a 10GE LAN PHY client interface.

I do not know if the Nortel 5200 DWDM system supports LAN PHY interfaces on their transponders.
