A switch will be more expensive, but you can also use it for more. I would
avoid the use of a media converter if at all possible. I *might* use one
on a non-critical link, but not inline w/ my primary Internet connection
(especially if it was my *only* Internet connection)
I found the ones we've been using in my past orders. Aaxeon.

I found these managed ones, but haven't tried them so YMMV:
