Yes, you can. The fiber optic cable + media converter is just a extension solution. It convert the electronic signal to optic signal and vice versa. As long as it works with cat5e or cat6 cable, you can replace the copper cable with fiber optic solution.

Very clear!. I got a 50m spool of fiber cable, divided it carefully (you can split them using your hands carefully and got the A cable and the B cable pointing to different buildings in my compound area). So I got a fiber optic connection on two other buildings. The speed is 2.5GB per second, it works nicely for 2 TVs and 7 computers in the LAN. It works 24/7 with any issues. Thanks dude!

Great video. I’ve been trying to wrap my head around different website directions and Amazon pages, but your video really synthesized all the information for me and now it all makes sense! I just set up a connection in Spain using Movistar which utilises an SC/ACP fiber cable. The router they provide does include a direct fiber connection but the router is not the best. They now offer a WiFi 6 router (50€) and extenders (in Spanish: amplificador) for 50-100€. I think adding an extender or repeater would cause a significant loss in transmission speed for the work that I do. Please let me know if my thinking is correct: I will use my ASUS WiFi 6 router instead of the ISP’s default router and it has Ethernet ports. I will use a single-mode SFP media converter because only ONE fiber optic cable is needed as I just learned from you that it utilises different wavelengths for sending and receiving data. I will then use an Ethernet cable to connect the media converter to the router. This should ensure direct fiber speeds into my ASUS router, correct?

You will need to find out whether hte SFP port is the WLAN port or LAN port. If it is the WLAN port, it will not work, because the WLAN suppose to connect to ISP which will provide you the internet access. You can't link the WLAN port to another router to extend the WiFi coverage. It should be the LAN ports. You can add media converter both end to use the fiber optic cable. Just one more thing, you need to turn off the DHCP on the new router.

How long distance it will transmit data ? If I'll use 2KM long fiber cable then it will helpful or not ?

@Fastcabling

In this video, we used the BiDi SFP fiber modules (5976-84), and they can support a transmission distance of 20km for a point-to-point connection. Single-mode fiber optic cable is capable of transmitting data over much longer distances as compared to multi-mode fiber, which is normally used to transmit data over shorter distances, typically within a building or a campus (300 meters for OM3 and OM4). For more information, please refer to the product page below: Gigabit Fiber to Ethernet Media Converter Kit: www.fastcabling.com/product/gigabit-fiber-to-ethernet-media-converter-kit-lc-single-mode-fiber/ BiDi SFP Fiber Modules: www.fastcabling.com/product/bidi-sfp-fiber-modules-2/

Would I just need on of these if I have a POE switch with a SFP port?

You are right. If the media converter is built-in to your PoE switch, you just need one. Probably you should have one pair of SFP transceiver.

I'm not sure if I understood your question correctly...but fiber media converters do not have wireless capabilities by default, as they are designed to convert fiber optic signals to Ethernet signals and vice versa. However, some media converters may have the ability to connect to a separate wireless access point via Ethernet. So, it is possible to use a fiber media converter in conjunction with a wireless access point to provide wireless connectivity in your home.

So I got this issue too. When I got fibre optic for my house it came with this Huawei router that actually had the fiber optic port but the router itself is horrible and only send a max of 150mbps and the WiFi falls away to 60mbps after 1m. This fibre cable comes straight from the wall. Yesterday I bought a new WIFI6 router and lo and behold no fibre optic entry (I didn't know I needed one. Thought it was LAN to LAN). Now I've been trying to figure out which fibre optic cable I even have! It's a single one and not with 2 cables like the one in the video. I'm seeing sooo many different converters online and I'm so lost. Going to the electronic shops here like Mediamarkt and they can't even help me as fibre optic is super new in Spain and they sell no adapters so I'd have to order them online but... I don't know which one. Do you happen to know?? It's a single, very small cable with this weird round entry point 😢

I had the same fiber Huawey, with 1GB LAN speed. I simply used one LAN port to extend the fiber optic using media converters to two other buildings 100 m apart. These routers Wifi are very weak, you may want to use another independent source (any comnsumer grade router would do)

can my internet speed be affected by the media converter speed. For example: I got a 500/500 subscription but I am only getting 100mbps(89-99) while my media converter is only 10/100M. Thank you!!

@Fastcabling

If your media converter is rated for 10/100 Mbps, it means it can handle speeds up to 100 Mbps. Therefore, if you have a 500/500 Mbps (download/upload) internet subscription, your media converter is a bottleneck in your network setup. This is because it cannot transmit data at speeds higher than 100 Mbps, despite your higher subscription rate. You would need to upgrade your media converter to a model that supports gigabit speeds (1000 Mbps or 1 Gbps).

Sorry kid but I've been doing this for the last 10 years! Don't get me wrong but this is the best connections especially for gamers and streamers and streaming videos. I use the multi mode convertors instead of single mode.

@Fastcabling

6 ай бұрын

Agree😊. Multimode fiber can support up to 550 meters with data rates of 10 Gbps or less, which is more than enough for everyday use. The choice of multimode and single-mode fiber optic cable depends on the specific requirements of the application, specifically the distance the cable will run and the required data transfer rate. Single-mode fiber is better suited for long-distance transmission or where high data rates and bandwidth are required, such as telecommunications and cable television networks, although it can be more expensive. Just choose them wisely.

My laptop FPS runs up to 60 FPS and my ping is not that bad with the new router (max of 30 ping) My questions is: Can I used this setup to improve my gaming?

Given your description, your current setup with a 1GB plan and a high-quality ASUS router is likely already delivering top-notch performance. The improvement from switching to fiber (if you haven’t already) might not be as dramatic as going from a lower-tier connection to fiber. If fiber interest isn't available in your neighborhood, then the installation cost can be quite expensive. Features like Quality of Service (QoS) settings can help prioritize gaming traffic on your network to improve performance.

How to convert from fiber optic cable to RJ 11 ?

@Fastcabling

Жыл бұрын

You need to use an RJ11 (telephone) to fiber converter.

Can I get rid-off my ISP's fiber optic router and connect the ONT line that comes directly into the house to the converter and the converter to my DECO XE-75 PRO? Currently, I have the ISP's router connected to the fiber optic line and the ethernet cable connected to the WAN's port of the DECO XE-75 PRO. The DECO XE-75 PRO then connects to other XE-75 access points as a mesh network. In order to connect the primary DECO XE-75 PRO to the ISP's router, I had to clone the MAC address of the ISP's primary mesh wifi router. My goal is to return the ISP's router and have the fiber optic line connect directly to the primary DECO XE-75 PRO.

It depends on the setting (infrastructure) from ISP. If it is the PON network, the ISP's router (aka modem) need to register to the OLT in the data center before you have internet access. If you just remove the ISP's router, you probably don't have internet access. Usually, the OTL will control the registration, speed (bandwidth) control, and other protocal. I doubt you can remove the ISP's router and still have the internet access.
