10GbE Media Converter with Open SFP+ slot

A+

Amazing customer support! I had an atypical use case which led some issues but customer support responded super fast and made it right. the interaction was genuine.My use case was a link speed conversion rather than the fiber/copper conversion. I had a multi-gig (5G-Base-T on UTP side and 10G-Base-T OPNSense on the other side) Even tho the connection was established, it was still 10G-Base-T on both sides which led to collision errors for the upload (TX) packets. Download (RX) was fine.I highly recommend their business based on my experience with the customer support.

This unit is fairly inexpensive for a 10Gb Media converter. It works perfectly out of the box. My only complain is that it runs extremely hot since it has no active cooling. If I were to leave my finger on the SFP module it would have left a minor burn. I had to setup a small desk fan to blow air across/through it's ventilation holes. Once it has some active cooling it runs very cool.

I needed something that is extremely easy to install, and this one was as easy as it gets. It also came with a 10G Cat7 UTP patchcord which are quite pricey if bought separately. This is an inexpensive alternative to 10G switch which works like a clock. Was able to get 10G speeds over the copper to my workstation, without any additional settings adjustments. I installed this switch in the server room with OM3 cable running to it, just FIY. Anyways, good purchase, recommended.

Fast shipment, would order again

This is get our 10 gigabit network going at work , and it works as advertised.

Ever need to run, say, 10G ethernet over a kilometer of cable and then convert it back into copper again? Believe it or not, if you have a server room, this is an occurrence! Slow coax cables are a thing of the 80’s, and this little tiny box pushes media in a massive way, with quick light.On a more personal note, like for my house or a small office, I have found enjoyment playing with fiber optics in my home. Do I need that kind of power? Maybe not. Or maybe it is the future to make my home as fast as possible! It is, however, fun to move data that fast. This is not for home use really. It’s set up for pro. What I do know is that this converter is smart, fast and worthy.

If you want to run Fiber To The Desktop, this is a key part of that equation. You'll need an SFP module for your provider / setup, of course. But if you want super speed to the desktop, this is where you want to be. Good for servers, too, of course. But bah. FTTD is the WTG. Your PC be smokin on this.
