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. Fibre Channel over Ethernet - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_over_Ethernet

   Data center switches from Force10 and Dell PowerConnect supported FCoE and in June 2013, Dell Networking, which is the new brand-name for all networking portfolio of Dell, introduced the S5000 series which can be a fully native FCoE switch with the option to include a native fibre channel module, allowing you to connect the S5000 directly to an ...

4. Ethernet over fiber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_over_fiber

   Ethernet over fiber is a networking technology that delivers Ethernet bandwidth ranging up to 400 Gbit/s using optical fiber lines. Such wired transmission methods extend connectivity over long distances up to 200 km, support higher bitrates and provide far greater immunity from electromagnetic interference (EMI) than electrical connections.

5. Fibre Channel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel

   Fibre Channel is primarily used to connect computer data storage to servers [3] [4] in storage area networks (SAN) in commercial data centers. Fibre Channel networks form a switched fabric because the switches in a network operate in unison as one big switch.

6. Fibre Channel switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre_Channel_switch

   SAN administrators typically add new switches as their server and storage needs grow, connecting switches together via fiber optic cable using the standard device ports. Some switch vendors offer dedicated high-speed stacking ports to handle inter-switch connections (similar to existing stackable Ethernet switches), allowing high-performance ...

7. Network switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_switch

   In the hierarchical internetworking model and similar network architectures, switches are also used deeper in the network to provide connections between the switches at the edge. In switches intended for commercial use, built-in or modular interfaces make it possible to connect different types of networks, including Ethernet, Fibre Channel ...
