Media Converter
<networking> A component used in Ethernet, although it is not part of the IEEE standard.
The IEEE standard states that all segments must be linked with repeaters.
Media converters were developed as a simpler, cheaper alternative to repeaters.
However, in the 1990s the cost difference between the two is negligible.
