2. Fiber media converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_media_converter

   A Fast Ethernet fiber converter (100BASE-FX using ST connector to 100BASE-TX using modular connector). A fiber media converter is a simple networking device that makes it possible to connect two dissimilar media types such as twisted pair with fiber optic cabling.

3. Small Form-factor Pluggable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_Form-factor_Pluggable

   Ethernet switch with two empty SFP slots (lower left) SFP sockets are found in Ethernet switches, routers, firewalls and network interface cards. They are used in Fibre Channel host adapters and storage equipment. Because of their low cost, low profile, and ability to provide a connection to different types of optical fiber, SFP provides such ...

4. Fibre Channel over Ethernet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_over_Ethernet

   With FCoE, network (IP) and storage (SAN) data traffic can be consolidated using a single network. This consolidation can: reduce the number of network interface cards required to connect to disparate storage and IP networks; reduce the number of cables and switches; reduce power and cooling costs

5. Gigabit interface converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabit_interface_converter

   1000BASE-SX GBIC. Gigabit interface converter (GBIC) is a standard for transceivers.First defined in 1995, it was used with Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel.By standardizing on a hot swappable electrical interface, a single gigabit port can support a wide range of physical media, from copper to long-wave single-mode optical fiber, at lengths of hundreds of kilometers.

6. Fibre Channel switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_switch

   The fabric is a network of Fibre Channel devices which allows many-to-many communication, device name lookup, security, and redundancy. FC switches implement zoning, a mechanism that disables unwanted traffic between certain fabric nodes. Fibre Channel switches may be deployed one at a time or in larger multi-switch configurations.
