I totally understand just wanting to have a fiber link, even if 1G, and doing it cheap, simply for the experience of working with optical networking. Every one critical for no reason haha.
You can achieve that speed with cheap regular media converter, no need to use sfp. And instead of so many switch you can use router like mikrotik and use vlan for whatever you need.
Could you make a video showing everything you got in detail plus what their specific uses are and why ? Wanting to do a fun hole network project as well

What is your speed test reference / comparison? 1. Source bandwidth (isp). 2. What server location you are pinging / speedtest. 3. If you testing FO cable Use analyzer tool such as fluke DTX analyzer, FO cleaning and inspection equiptment to test your cable installation.
I was testing this connection to bring a wired connection to my room upstairs, and fro there to the attic later on. It's a gigabit link, server in London. I don't have and sophisticated tools to test my cable yet I bought them all new but will definitely try them, thank you for the suggestion, appreciate it.
I connect the service provider modem with a ethernet cable cat 6 or better to my router and then i get 1000 Mbit/s up and down on my gigabit fiber internet connection, very simple :-)
I mean, I like fiber as much as the next guy and I do realize that you're doing this for fun, but you could've easily gone for a much cooler ten gig setup with something like a CSS610.
I didn’t even know it degrades if it’s too long, in that case the guy did a good job choosing that fiber optic cable, I didn’t even know you could directly plug it in to a switch, that’s kinda bullshit because I have one but without those two ports, I should’ve gotten one, (I have fiber internet)
All you needed was a regular fiber optic internet company to install there service and then you could have just installed Ethernet outlets in your house and plug the fiber internet router into the Ethernet port and you’ll have your house 1gig hardlined
This is my home lab, there are servers and Nas on this network and all I wanted to do it to run a fiber line to upstairs, all 49ft cable was just enough and I'm happy with the connection.
Networking guys are wild to me because they setup all that and then it'll just be like 3 hosts connected to the network. (I get it though its the home lab)
Using duplex multimode fibre for a 1G connection??? What is the point of this lol. I guess it looks "cooler" but this seems like such a waste of money. Using media converters, 2x duplex SFP+ and duplex OM3 multi mode fibre vs a $10 Ethernet patch cable? I get its probably just to learn, but in that case u should be looking into what fibres best suit ur needs to learn the capabilities of fibre and how and where they should be implemented. U should just go with a simplex singlemode OM2 for a gigabit connection.
@@TheHandyPair im really not following the point of this for your application (unless the was just some concept demo). you can easily get 10gb on cat 7 up tp 250 feet, and sure you have less signal latencty, but on lan we are talking sub 1 ms because your runs aren kms long. infact, your converters introduce a small amount of latency as there is some processing ivolved in that conversion to tbh you might actually be worse off compared to cat 7 and straight rj45. also switches off of switches is a terrible network topology if your worried about latency.
@@TheHandyPair i bring up latency only because id assume you didnt do this for the 700-1000mbps right? like you can get that on cat 5, tyhat modern laptop might eeven be ably to max out gigabit on wifi. my asus tuf A15 can do ~850mbps on wifi...
Should I use a straight cable or a cross cable to connect the router to the switch? And if you connect another router through the switch, should you use it?
Yes indeed, less latency. Main reason I did this to bring wired internet to the upstairs, using fibre cable has been a success as I didn't have any connectivity issues. Wiring has been easy as well it's small single cable I had to run through.
@@sheeeeeeeeeeesh NOTE Remember, each port on a hub is in the same collision domain. Each port on a bridge, switch, or router is in a separate collision domain.
Why did you even bother? Why did you buy fiber which is good up to 100Gbps (Lenght have huge significance)? You could easily get away with OM2 I have been running 10GbE over 25m OM2
Fibre Optik is a waste of money for 1 gigabit. A good cat7 cable would have given you the same speeds. Fibre is only necessary for connections over 20 gigabit. Or 10 gigabit for ~ more then 50 meters.

To help lower ping, use less wire and use less devices. No magic with more stuffs.
Why not just use an ONT for WAN, straight to router then switch
the fiber cable is useless you can use lan and get same speeds, its when you go over 40gb/s (CAT8) where you need a fiber cable
