10Gb Fiber Media Converter

[The Computer Audiophile]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a 10Gb fiber media converter?

 

The equipment overheated yesterday in my crawl space. I need to move it to the basement. One 10Gb device is copper only. I have a dozen strands of single mode fiber available from my room to the basement. I think a 10Gb fiber media converter will be perfect in this situation. 
 

Open to other suggestions as well.

It's likely massive overkill, but...

If you would like a less expensive option, I used this for a bit, earlier this year.

Never seen this before:

 

 

Normally it would say "RJ45", but here it says "UTP"

That’s certainly a different label. Unshielded Twisted Pair can be used, but so can Shielded Twisted Pair. RJ45 is more accurate as it’s the only termination that works in that port. Hmm.

This is the one I purchased. It’s working perfectly.

Just wanted to add that unmanaged 10G switches are coming down in pricing. They can work as FMCs and are also great for isolating devices with 10G. I am using this one currently but there are many other similar units out now:

I have had no issues with it so far, however, I am not using it for any intensive network use.

Excellent.
