Fiber PoE Switch Basics: RJ45 Port VS. SFP Slot

Показать описание
You may wonder what the SFP slot is for on your switch. Basically, you can connect IP devices such as IP cameras, access points, VoIP phones by using the fiber optic cable through the SFP slot. The fiber optic link provides a fast-speed network over long distances with low latency. You still need other equipment before you can attach the fiber optical cable to your switch. You may still need a media converter at the edge unless your IP device has built-in SFP slots. The fiber optical transceiver (aka SFP module) needs to be installed on both ends to convert the optical signal to a digital signal or vice versa.
