5.0 out of 5 stars Simple and easy installation

2025-12-23    -JL Gauvreau

The pair of units were tested with a single optical fiber. Within seconds the communication was established at 1Gbits/seconds. The units are compact, low power and have good shielding. No EMI were detected outside the enclosures. I used a 5 Meters SC to SC Fiber Optic Cable Single-Mode for this test. I recommend the product and customer service has been responsive to my inquiries.

These things just work. Quick and reliable set up. I used these to network my shop to my house.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ethernet to fiber solution

2026-02-20    -Green Arrow

We needed a device to go from fiber to ethernet. This was not the device for that. It goes from Ethernet to fiber. It does act as an Ethernet extender via fiber by going from Channel A to B. Transmit box to receive box. Appears to be well made, tho we did not end up using it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great products, great value, great people!

It was as simple a “plug and play” device as I have encountered anywhere, and did exactly what I wanted. I am now expanding my system with more devices from ad-net and am working with their excellent customer support team to get the best set of products for my needs. They have helped me avoid what would have been a long-term design mistake. So, not only great value and quality, but an excellent team to back it up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Works with Fortinet Fortilink

2026-01-28    -Shayne Barr

I was having problems with some other media convertors (10Gtek) working between Fortinet switches. It seems they don't all support the QinQ or VLAN Stacking that Fortilink apparently uses to connect between devices. These do support QinQ and my Fortiswitches connected up flawlessly after installing them.

Works awesome. Wdm means only one fiber is needed. Super fast and simple. Great quality.

5.0 out of 5 stars Warning: Do NOT get the fiber cable Amazon recommends!

2026-01-31    -Randy

This set of media converters work perfectly, offering full duplex communication over a single fiber. But make sure you consult with the manufacturer for the correct fiber type, because the one AMAZON is showing in this ad, under the category of items (frequently bought together) is the wrong cable and will not work! The correct fiber type for these adapters is SC/UPC-SC, and will have blue connector ends. Again, the ones AMAZON is showing will NOT work.For background, I use these media converters between my modem and router for additional isolation/protection from external surges. The switching power supplies offer reasonable ground isolation, while the fiber provides a path through which no electrical surge can pass. I've used other fiber media converters in electric utility substations for similar protection, to isolate sensitive equipment from remote sensors near high voltage buses. There has been no loss in internet functionality or speed with this addition, in fact various internet speed tests show identical results.
