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. XFP transceiver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFP_transceiver

   A 10 Gigabit Ethernet XFP transceiver and a SFP+ transceiver side by side. The physical dimensions of the XFP transceiver are slightly larger than the original small form-factor pluggable transceiver (SFP). One of the reasons for the increase in size is to allow for on-board heat sinks for more cooling. [citation needed]

4. Small Form-factor Pluggable - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_Form-factor_Pluggable

   The SFP replaced the larger gigabit interface converter (GBIC) in most applications, and has been referred to as a Mini-GBIC by some vendors. [3] SFP transceivers exist supporting synchronous optical networking (SONET), Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, PON, and other communications standards.

5. Ethernet physical layer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_physical_layer

   The Ethernet physical layer has evolved over its existence starting in 1980 and encompasses multiple physical media interfaces and several orders of magnitude of speed from 1 Mbit/s to 800 Gbit/s. The physical medium ranges from bulky coaxial cable to twisted pair and optical fiber with a standardized reach of up to 80 km.

6. 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.

7. XAUI - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XAUI

   10 Gigabit Attachment Unit Interface (XAUI / ˈ z aʊ i / ZOW-ee) is a standard for extending the XGMII (10 Gigabit Media Independent Interface) between the MAC and PHY layer of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) defined in Clause 47 of the IEEE 802.3 standard.
