Fiber Optic Convert from Cat5, Cat6 Cable

Speed and quality are essential in data transfer. In our age, it is of great importance to transfer data quickly and reliably from one point to a distant point. This is why we can ensure a quality transfer using fiber optic technology.

Although the system and its by-products seem to be quite financially burdensome, the advantages it brings make it “worth it”. Let’s get to know a few devices required in a medium-sized network.

Network Switch

With this device, your PCs and servers can easily access your incoming data via fiber optic via RJ-45 port. In addition, the distribution of incoming and outgoing data is done in this way. Before entering the switch, the digital signals in the form of beams coming with the fiber optic cable enter another finger-sized interface called the Module and both enter the switch together.

This intermediate unit is also called a module or a chibik. The task of the cibik is to convert the signals on the incoming beam into interpretable digital signals. The interpretation and distribution work is done by smart switches with a cibik port. You can see an example of a smart switch and a cibik (module) in the pictures below.

Cibik (Module):

Management Switch:

It is a device that can perform advanced network control called a backbone, organize, categorize and divide the network into blocks. There are usually cibik and RJ-45 type network ports on it. There is also a Com port for console connection. The device can be configured with this port.

There are regions on it, namely the A-B-C-D-E-F-G-H region. A few of these sections are left empty to allow modifications to be made. In the future, new port regions can be opened in these sections according to the need. Below is a picture of the Backbone Switch for your review.

If you have a classical type network and you support part of this network with fiber optic technology, you will definitely need a TTx Converter. With this converter, data conversion is made from Cat5 and Cat6 type normal copper cable to Lc-Lc or Lc-Sc type fiber optic cable via RJ-45 port. You can see the picture of this converter below.

In order for the converter to work properly, there must be one at the start point and one at the end point. So the scheme works like this:

Cat5(RJ45) –> CONVERTER –> f/o Cable –> CONVERTER –> Cat5(Rj45)
