...fiber cables and media converters and switches is not a bad idea, but in many cases not a solution that you can do immediately or for somewhat money. If there is no fiber cable, you need to install one. If you want to connect another building being...

...you can even use media converters and run several miles over fiber cabling. Plus, these extenders transmit signals digitally from end to end, so digital content is never compromised. • Meeting existing standards also allows for easy installation an...
