Send us a text

Are you ready to unravel the mysteries of fiber optic media converters? Join us as we converse with Benjamin Hamlitsch RCDD, our guest for this episode, and lay out the complex world of these fascinating devices. These converters, often used for transferring signals over long distances, usually convert from copper to fiber. We'll dissect the power requirements, the various scenarios where they shine the brightest, and how they compare cost-wise with copper cables.

Choosing the right media converter can be a maze, but we'll help you navigate it. We'll delve into the factors such as bandwidth, speed, type of fiber, and whether your device requires PoE. We'll also discuss the cost savings of using multi-mode fiber transceivers. To crown it all, Ben Hortledge offers us an insightful crash course on SFP or Small Form-factor Pluggable transceivers. So sit back and tune in to our enlightening chat as we shed light on the technicalities, costs, and uses of fiber optic media converters in this tech-saturated era.
