Aug 29, 2016Forget that look at NUFIBER.com they make a SFP switch with 8 or 16 ports. Simply take the switch <100 dollars and load each port with SFP stick of your choice (LC is best) and Wa-La you have as many as (8) individual fibers all (pushing TCP packets I assume?) convered to one line outbound.
Works like a charm and you can do it for < 200 bucks.

This netgear switch for example has 12 sfp OR 12 gige ports:
