[lug] Connecting to Fiber

[Todd]

Gordon,

It would definitely be cleaner that way.

You can pick up Trendnet media converters for ~$80 for each system (plus
that patch cable) but you would have to account for placement of the
converter as well as accommodate for the AC adapter of each converter.

Thanks.
