Equipment for fiber optics in the apartment?

Question

Computer networks

I want to connect myself to a gigabit fiber optic tariff, but I want to get rid of the Chinese router from the provider. What should I take: an SFP transceiver + a router with an SFP module or an optics-to-twisted-pair media converter + a regular router? Or I do not understand everything correctly. Thank you.

Answer 1

What your ISP supports. It should have a list of supported modules.
Just like that with anyone that you buy, most likely they will not be accepted.
A router with an SFP module IMHO is more convenient.

Answer 2

If your optics comes using xPON technology, then the provider will not let you get rid of their router (ONT), because it is an integral part of their network. You can already stick your equipment into it as you wish.
Write the model of the provider's router.

Answer 3

Nothing :) The provider will simply send you. You can get rid of it... together with the provider. You can talk to him about switching their router to optic-eth bridge mode, if that's possible.

Answer 4

Usually the provider supplies its own exclusive adapter for the router. Also, often this adapter cannot be bought, but can only be rented + repaired for money.
