Standalone and Centrally-managed Media Converter Installation
PLANET FST-80x adopts the advanced media conversion technology to meet the demand for today’s growing networking. It provides a diverse choice of fiber connecting types to meet different network applications. It is very flexible for the FST-80x to work as a standalone device or to be installed in the central web smart media converter chassis for centralized management, which supports hot swapping to avoid network downtime. The FST-80x is ideal for building a network solution of FTTH (Fiber to the Home) or FTTC (Fiber to the Curb) and FTTB (Fiber to the Building) for ISPs, campuses and enterprises.
