[WISPA] Fiber handoff to Mikrotik
I'm upgrading my data from the provider. It's fiber right now but hands off from the provider as Ethernet. The new circuit is going to handoff as fiber. Currently I'm using a RB493G router at my DEMARC, what Mikrotik router do you all recommend to take a fiber handoff?

A whole bunch of them have SFPs now. If it was my choice, I'd get x86.

Re: [WISPA] Fiber handoff to Mikrotik
I depends on what fiber they hand you. If it is Multi-Mode, you can get sub $75.00 media converters and leave the 450 in place. If it is Single Mode, you may as well get a router with SFP ports as to get a media converter. On 11/13/2012 1:00 PM, Dave Barker wrote: I'm upgrading my data from the provider.

Re: [WISPA] Fiber handoff to Mikrotik
Also depends on your commit. How was your CPU load looking with the RB493G? If you're increasing bandwidth, And you were on the edge of needing a faster router. Might as well do them at the same time. Baltic Networks/RouterMaxx with SFP ports comes to mind as a nice step up.

Re: [WISPA] Fiber handoff to Mikrotik
... Scott, are you under the impression that the Single Mode Fiber Converters are More Expensive ? Today that is not the case... One can get good quality SM or Multi-Mode Fiber Media converters (Gigabit) for $100 to $150. BTW.. if you are going to be needing multiple connections, one might consider putting in a Gigabit Switch with SFP ports on them... Regards.

Re: [WISPA] Fiber handoff to Mikrotik
It seems to me that the price is pretty much the same when sm vs mm, just goes up depending on the distance the sfp needs to go.

Re: [WISPA] Fiber handoff to Mikrotik
SM SFP's come in many versions.. most common / generic Short Range (LX) Medium Range (LH) Long Range. (ZX) (then you also have the Colorized versions.. and not counting the Single Fiber SFP's. (Tx Rx on a single fiber, rather than a pair). For those interested in getting more info on these... here is a good starting document from CISCO.. http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/modules/ps5455/ps6577/product_data_sheet0900aecd8033f885.html LH ZX stuff can get expensive.

Re: [WISPA] Fiber handoff to Mikrotik
I am not picky about my SFP's... lots of time pick them up on Ebay... (Surplus). If you like I have SM Fiber GBIC's. $20 each if you need SFP's (normal LX)... I have those too... $ 20 each. If you want full Media converter last ones I bought were from CTC Union... www.ctcu.com.tw . http://stores.ebay.com/Fiber-Optic-for-All-warehouse?_trksid=p2047675.l2563 These days, we are using Ethernet Switches with SFP's as media converters... with the exception of when we need a SMF Fast Ethernet Media Converter.
