@efoo option 1 is an easiest to test - get the converters on Amazon. If you don’t like the results, return them. Your option 2 is similar to what @ozzy uses with his Lumin and we just chatted about it here - he uses EtherREGEN to output fiber optic.
If you end up using fiber optic, get a long cable and keep all the switches, routers, converters etc as far away from the component rack as you can.
Using Optical Network Port on a Lumin U2
I am looking to use the Optical Network Port on a Lumin U2 Streamer.
I have a 50 ft cable run that already has CAT 6A cable.
I will be adding the SOtM 10GB switch and need advice on hook up options.
Either:
1) Get a Ethernet to Fiber converter to plug the existing cable into then > Fiber to the Lumin U2.
2) Run a Fiber optic cable from the SFP port of the SOtM 10G switch to the Fiber optical network port on a Lumin U2 Streamer.
Which option should I use and what gear / cable(s) do I need?
Budget would be up to or around $1000
