With the increase in demands on the network, several network devices are manufactured to meet these demands. Fiber media converter is one of the key components in those devices. It is a feature of high frequency capability, long distance operation and reliability, which makes it popular in modern networking systems. This post will explore some basis and show several examples of application of fiber media converter.
Fiber Media Converter is a device that can convert an electrical signal into light waves between copper UTP networks (twisted unhardened pair) and fiber optic networks. As we all know, compared to Ethernet cable, fiber optic cables have a longer transmission distance, especially single-mode fiber cables. Therefore, fiber media converters help operators solve the transmission problem perfectly.
Fiber media converters are typically protocol specific and are available to support a wide variety of network types and data rates. And they also provide fiber to fiber conversion between single mode and multimode fiber. In addition, some fiber media converters such as copper-to-fiber and fiber-to-fiber media converters have the ability to convert wavelengths using SFP transceivers.
