Thanks to the virus fiasco, I'm preparing to upgrade our infrastructure. I have 3 1G switches, each with 4 10G ports. Next week I'm preparing to install them on a lighter than already light day.
The next phase will be to replace the 3 remaining switches. The trouble is these switch connect other buildings using fiber and the media converters are 1G max.
Since I'm going to need 4 media convertors, I'm hoping for an experience based hardware recommendation that won't decimate the budget.
I'm looking for either an RJ45 to Fiber or a fiber to fiber solution . I can get either transceiver relatively inexpensively but the cost of the 10G media converters kind of surprised me.
Any help is appreciated
