2. Fiber media converter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber_media_converter

   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. They were introduced to the industry in the 1990s, and are important in interconnecting fiber optic cabling-based systems with existing copper-based structured cabling systems.

3. Ethernet over fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_over_fiber

   With fiber-optic cables, data can be transmitted over much greater distances compared to copper-based Ethernet cable. [2] Ethernet over fiber-optic cable has been a technology with specifications dating back to the mid 1980s (10BASE-F). Initially, fiber-optic cables were primarily used to connect repeaters when the distance between them ...

4. Fibre Channel over Ethernet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_over_Ethernet

   Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) is a computer network technology that encapsulates Fibre Channel frames over Ethernet networks. This allows Fibre Channel to use 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks (or higher speeds) while preserving the Fibre Channel protocol.

5. Fibre Channel switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_switch

   A special variety of a FC switch is the Fibre Channel Director, a switch meant to provide backbone infrastructure in a fabric usually featuring at least 128 ports and high-availability attributes, however the term is loose and varies among to manufacturers. [1] It does not differ from a switch in core FC protocol functionality.

6. Fibre to the office - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_to_the_Office

   Fiber to the office (FTTO) is an alternative cabling concept for local area network (LAN) network office environments. [1] It combines passive elements (fibre optic cabling, patch panels, splice boxes, connectors and standard copper 8P8C patch cords) and active mini-switches (called FTTO switches) to provide end devices with Gigabit Ethernet. [2]

7. Avionics Full-Duplex Switched Ethernet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avionics_Full-Duplex...

   A highly intelligent switch, common to the AFDX network, is able to buffer transmission and reception packets. Through the use of twisted pair or fiber optic cables, full-duplex Ethernet uses two separate pairs or strands for transmitting and receiving the data. AFDX extends standard Ethernet to provide high data integrity and deterministic ...
