I have a bias against unmanaged devices. I want to be able to prove
there's connectivity all the way to the customer prem without having
anyone physically there. For $60-100 you can have a router or a managed
switch.
With ethernet is it sufficient to have an "up" on the switch interface?
I also suppose if they're unmanaged they can't be hacked and don't need
firmware upgrades. I could be convinced, but like I said, I have a bias.

It has storage specs to –20C. Not sure why operating temps are 0C on
the lower end. But if it is inside an enclosure it will self heat.
$23 plus the $9 SFP.

$32 plus enclosure. Pretty low cost per customer doing it this way.
I know Sterling uses MTs for much the same thing, but if I remember he
cannot get the one he likes any longer.
I like this as there is zero config here. Dumb media converter. Put
all your smarts at your router or switch.
