What is a Media Converter?

A media converter is used to extend Cat 5e/6 Ethernet cabling to distances beyond the 100
meter maximum for Ethernet by converting IP voice/video/data signals to fiber optic cabling.

Where are Media Converters used?
Media converters are used in environments where EMI/RFI is present, such as manufacturing facilities and other industrial environments. Other applications include campus networks where many buildings need to be connected via fiber. Also, high-rise buildings typically use a fiber backbone, which is laid vertically and taps into copper (UTP) networks on each floor via a media converter.
