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. For my application I needed to get an 80km sm version And it was 245 from aaxeon.com

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.

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? >> Thanks >> Dave >> Broadlinc Wireless >> _______________________________________________ >> Wireless mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless >> >> >> ----- >> No virus found in this message. >> Checked by AVG - www.avg.com >> Version: 2013.0.2793 / Virus Database: 2624/5883 - Release Date: 11/08/12 >> >> _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless ----- No virus found in this message.
