Our F630 filer has a 1000Base-SX card in it that we aren't using. We note that this is a "fiber" Gigabit, but all our other facilities are copper (1000Base-T). Is there an easy (i.e., cheap) way to convert?
If the card has a non-fixed GBIC, you could pull it out and replace it with a copper one - looks like they're on ebay for ~$50 (seems cheap to me, I'd check the part number). Otherwise, you'll need a media converter, which are generally pretty expensive.
Thanks, Matt
