I'm guessing your router doesn't have a fiber interface?

Yes, I thought of that, but a good managed switch would most probably cost more than a good media converter... And since it's inline to our main Internet connection, I don't want to use a cheap-o switch ;) -----Original Message----- From: Frank Bulk [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, January 16, 2012 10:05 PM To: Will Dennis; [email protected] Subject: RE: [lopsa-tech] Recommendation on managed fiber-to-copper meda converter? Can you use a managed switch and use its interfaces or SFP slot?

Hi all, I'm looking for a good managed (i.e. a unit with stats and troubleshooting capabilities) fiber-to-copper meda converter. I know there's plenty of "dumb" media converter choices out there, but was hoping to get one that has a console conn or the like to help me troubleshoot any possible issues. I'm converting between 50nm multi-mode fiber with an SC connector to 1000-bT copper. Anyone have any suggestions for a good one?
