disable encryption during replication

We provide datacenter service, enterprise backup and disaster recovery services to our customers. That's why we need to backup our customers' data under the SLA we have committed.
As we tested we are not satisfied about Spectrum Protect Plus's replication performance and we want to use a WAN optimization solution to improve replication performance.
But Spectrum Protect Plus uses SSH tunnel and encryption between vSnap servers during replication so we can't use WAN optimization solution.
We opened a case about it and IBM support said that we can't disable encryption between vSnap servers and development team confirmed it.

We have 12 other data protection solutions and we can disable encryption or other features which are used on WAN site.
Only Spectrum Protect Plus doesn't allow us.
We should be able to choose whether enable or disable encryption between vSnap servers.
