Sonore Rendu or similar


I am somewhat lost about adding these optical or fiber devices into the modem/router/ethernet to streamer pathway. My Verizon FIOS is a modem/router with fiber cable, not copper cable. Do I need anything like Sonore Rendu or similar devices if I have fiber in the streamer path already? Thank you. Neal

Have you looked at your Verizon FIOS router? It's copper (ethernet). Not fiber. Yes, there is fiber coming to your home, but that connects to your ONT (optical network terminal). Then Ethernet (copper) from the ONT to the Router. In other words, Ethernet (copper) into and out of your actual Verizon FIOS router. Take a look at your Verizon router: do you see any fiber in and out of it?

@nglazer : I am not sure if your response was genuine "thank you" or not. Apologies for not understanding the meaning of your reply.

I have had Verizon FIOS for years now (residential FIOS, here in US), and have owned a range of their routers, including the most recent. And two of their ONTs. Unless there is a deployment somewhere that I am not familiar with, there is always an ONT and a Router combo with Verizon FIOS, same I explained in my first reply.
