Hi. I have an ONT. I’d like to move the ONT from its location to a different part of my home.
I do not have fibre to the new location, only Cat 6. Can I purchase a pair of Fibre to RJ45 converters and still expect the ONT to work on the other end?
I know my ISP does Mac/Serial detection on the ONTs so the ONT must be the one establishing the connection and this data must be unchanged, I’d have thought most F->Eth converters do not establish a connection to the OLT, but simply pass through transparently any data they are converting.
Anybody have any experience here? TIA.
So you want to add 2 devices just to convert optical>electrical and then electrical to optical? What have you gained by this?
Literally what the post says. The movement of the ONT, obviously.
It would be better to extend the fiber cable using a fiber coupler and a pre-connectorized fiber patch cable than introducing 2 additional component failing electrical devices to a passive link.
