Connecting a fiber optic cable and a copper cable to a media converter can be done in the following ways: Connect Switch B's copper connection to the fiber media converter's RJ45 port with a UTP cable. In most cases, fiber optic media converters convert between copper and fiber optic cables. Ethernet ports are designed for copper cables (like Cat5e or Cat6), which transmit data using electrical signals. This allows networks to extend beyond the 100 m copper limit while gaining higher bandwidth and resistance to electromagnetic interference.
[pdf] Fibre Channel (FC) is a high-speed networking protocol primarily used for Storage Area Networks (SANs). It provides reliable, lossless data transport at speeds of 8, 16, 32, and 64 Gbps per port. It handles high performance of disk storage for applications on many corporate networks. It is officially ratified by the Internet Engineering Task Force.
