The unit functions as an Ethernet bridge (Layer 2) device, interfacing a standard Ethernet over twisted pair connector.

It's not FTTH (their fiber goes to the building, and is split to standard Ethernet that comes to your unit), but it is a good option.

More recently, some panels are being networked with standard Ethernet, but this is not yet very common.

The system was integrated to the local area network using standard Ethernet.

Ethernet Powerlink is a deterministic real-time protocol for standard Ethernet.

The extender forwards traffic between LANs transparent to higher network-layer protocols over distances that far exceed the limitations of standard Ethernet.

AFDX extends standard Ethernet to provide high data integrity and deterministic timing.

Fiber configurations that bring fiber directly into the building can offer the highest speeds since the remaining segments can use standard ethernet or coaxial cable.

The interconnects between nodes can be standard Ethernet.

The idea to use standard Ethernet makes these systems more inter-operable.
