What is a Media Converter?

A media converter is a networking device that converts one type of network media, such as copper network cabling, to another, such as fibre optic network cabling. This is often used to extend network distances or connect different network types.

What is the difference between Single-Mode and Multi-Mode?

Single-mode fibre uses a thin core to guide light in a single path, enabling long-distance, high-bandwidth transmissions. Multi-mode fibre, on the other hand, has a thicker core that allows multiple light paths to travel simultaneously. While this can increase bandwidth over shorter distances, it can also lead to signal distortion due to the different light paths arriving at different times. This makes multi-mode fibre more suitable for shorter-distance applications, while single-mode fibre is better suited for longer-distance transmissions.

What is an SFP Module?

An SFP module is a small, hot-swappable device that plugs into media converters, switches, network cards, and routers. It provides various connectivity options, such as fibre optic or copper connectors.

What is the difference between Duplex and Simplex?

Simplex Fiber: A single-lane road. Usually, data only travels one way, but "Bi-Di" technology allows two-way traffic on that one lane by using two different colors of light.

Duplex Fiber: A two-lane road. Data travels both ways at once because there are two separate strands of glass—one for sending and one for receiving.

What is PoE (Power Over Ethernet)?

PoE technology transmits electrical power along with data signals over Ethernet cables, eliminating the need for separate power outlets and simplifying network installations, especially for devices like IP cameras and VoIP phones.

What is the difference between Ethernet (Cat) cables?

Ethernet categories (Cat5e, Cat6, Cat6a, etc.) define the speed and frequency the cable can handle. As the number increases, so does the performance.
