Media Converter
A media converter is a networking device that transparently converts Ethernet or other communication protocols from one cable type to another type, usually copper CATx/UTP to fibre. Media converters are often used in pairs to insert a fibre segment into copper networks to increase cabling distances and enhance immunity to electromagnetic interference. They can also extend LANs, and convert link speeds and fibre modes.
Most commonly it is used to convert signal between copper-based media (coax cable, UTP cable) and optical media (fiber optic cable). Typically media converter has two media ports – one for input media type, another for output media type.
Some of the advantages of media converter are –
Extend LAN distances with fibre
Retain investment in existing Equipment
Data Protection
Speed Conversion
Power over Ethernet
