You can get a multimode to singlemode converter (Digi) for about a thousand $US or so :-( That might be better than buying the SM card. Can you get your hands on some nearly worthless junk that has a singlemode port? If so, another possibility is to desolder its singlemode module and use it to replace the multimode module on your standard ATM card. It is no big deal if you can solder and desolder cleanly. I have done this to change the interface of one of my ATM switches.
