SFP Transceiver
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact, hot-pluggable transceiver used in optical communications for both telecommunication and data communications applications. It interfaces a network device mother board (for a switch, router, media converter or similar device) to a fiber optic or copper networking cable. It is a popular industry format supported by several network component vendors...
Media Converter
Media converters play an important role in today's multi-protocol, mixed media Local Area Networks. For example, LAN administrators can deploy media converters to integrate fiber optic cabling and active equipment into existing copper-based, structured cabling systems while achieving significant cost-savings. Media converters are also becoming a critical piece of the data networks outside the LAN, as electrical-to-optical conversion technology is enabling service providers to speed up the deployment and minimize the cost of provisioning Fiber-to-the-Subscriber, and offering MAN access and data transport services to enterprise customers. We will discuss the benefits of Ethernet as an end-to-end transport protocol, and illustrate how media converters are lighting up the first mile, enabling tier 1 carriers, MSOs, CLECs and "EtherLECs" to offer their customers a transparent WAN interface...

What is Ethernet?
Ethernet is the single most widely used form of the local area network currently in existence. The original design for Ethernet was created by Xerox, and was based on an earlier design that was known as Alohanet. After the initial creation and success of Ethernet, the product went through further enhancement under the auspices of Xerox, Intel, and DEC...
Router
The router is a tool of defence against attacking our computer. We can use it in case of security of our internet and PC. A more precise definition of a router is a computer networking device that interconnects separate logical subnets. Routers have many types but basically all are doing the same job...
Broadband Router
A broadband router is a basic device to set up a wired or wireless network. Broadband routers ensure that all the computers on a network can send and receive data to each other and across the Internet. These routers are of both wired and wireless but their features are very similar...
How A Router Works
