We have FX routers & Ethernet 100Base-FX Network Adapters all over the place here at work along with serial to fiber RS232 connections...
It's more prevalent than people think...
but on the other hand having a bunch of twisted pairs in a cat cable is mega cheap...
Fiber is getting cheaper, I have a fiber trunk line outside my house where it converts to POTS...I hate my telephone company, they have a golden opportunity for fiber to the house...no vision I tell ya

It's OK to be ignorant; it's not OK to play stupid. Never assume you are entitled to an answer. You are not.
