I plugged in a 'Cisco' rated 10GTek multimode, 550m range SFP transceiver into this, plugged the other identical SFP transceiver into my genuine Cisco SG300 series switch and strung up a 30m pre-made multi-mode fiber rated for outdoor use. The goal of this setup over copper is electrical isolation in case of lightning. It just works. At this it is by far the cheapest solution I have hit so far that just works.
I tested performance between my laptop and main computer with iperf and performance was identical between directly plugging in laptop to my Cisco SG300 and through this media converter, near 1Gb/s speeds.
With it being so quick, cheap, and easy to do fiber this way, one has to wonder why the fastest ISP I can get in the middle of a major, dense city only provides much crappier, unreliable, fails as soon as the power goes out, and slower service with much more expensive hardware so they can do it over coax and my only other option is antique, slow phone lines. Plus when I moved in they had to string up new lines and of course they chose copper, not fiber, which makes no sense to me. With a cheap single mode SFP transceiver and a cheap media converter they could provide me much faster service with lines running back to their central office where they could have UPSes and backup generators to make the service reliable and sell the service for more money because it would be worth it. At this the stuff wouldn't be going out / getting fried every time there was a lightning storm, which has become increasingly common and intense in recent years where I live. Also FiOS makes no sense to me either when I was in a FiOS neighborhood because they installed this gigantic box (ONT) in my closet that must of cost them a fortune while this cheap little box I am using does the same job except much faster at maybe 1/40th the price. So it's like I could provide awesome service that serves the customers' every need and do it well with a $25 box or I could do it badly with a $1,000 box. Of course telco logic is do it badly with the super expensive box that falls way short of the mark every time.
Update:
I need to up date my review for this product to five stars. After submitting my original review the seller contacted me and replaced the defective item. Thank you for your assistance.
Installation was simple, even though I've never worked with fiber before. The setup is pretty obvious. Plug in the fiber cable to the converters on each end, plug in your RJ45 Ethernet network cable to the converters on each end, and plug in the power supplies for the converters. Done. The one thing you have to be sure of (when ordering) is to make sure the fiber cable matches the converters. These converters expect a duplex, single-mode fiber cable with LC connectors on the ends. The description of the cable I got was: "100 Feet (30 Meters) Uniboot LC to LC Outdoor Armored Fiber Patch Cable, Low Friction Single Mode Duplex Fiber Optic Cable Jumper Optical Patch Cord, 9/125um, (OS1/OS2 Compatible), LSZH Black" This cable came configured as a crossover cable, so the TX from one converter goes into the RX of the other -- and vice versa.

The long story:
I've just ordered Bell Fibe 1G. I explicitly asked sales person if Bell could give me HH3000 (with proper removable SFP transceiver) instead of HH4000. The included SFP was "Nokia ONT SFP g-010s-a".
I have Ubiquity Edge Router Lite. It was configured to work with Rogers modem in bridge mode, so the router used DHCP on eth0 port which is WAN port. I had to reconfigure it in the following way:
1. On the main Dashboad screen eth0 interface -> Actions -> Config -> Set address to "No Address"
2. On the main Dashboad screen Add Interface -> VLAN {VLANID:35, Interface:eth0, No Address, MTU:1500}
3. On the main Dashboad screen Add Interface -> PPPoE {Interface:eth0.35 (the VLAN you just created), No Address, MTU:1492}
4. Go to Port forwarding/NAT/Firewall/DNS tabs and change everything that points or uses eth0 from eth0 to pppoe0.
Now you internet should start working but unreliably. Some sites/pages will open, but with many errors.
Open EdgeRouter CLI and run the following command:
"set firewall options mss-clamp interface-type pppoe"
"commit"
"save"
This should fix MTU issues and internet should start working properly, but not at full speed if you have offloading disabled.
Enable offloading by running the following commands (or by going to: "Config Tree > System > Offload > IP4 - Settings for IPv4 hardware offload" and set "enable" value ):
"set system offload ipv4 pppoe enable"
"set system offload ipv4 vlan enable"
You can also enable offloading for the following, but it's not that important:
"set system offload ipv6"
"set system offload ipv4 disable-flow-flushing-upon-fib-changes"
"set system offload ipv4 bonding enable"
"set system offload ipv4 forwarding enable"
"set system offload ipv4 gre enable"
Finally run:
"commit"
"save"
You should have speed close to 1G up and down.
I was hoping to find a PoE-powered media converter but the only one I could find had terrible reviews (a niche for someone?) so I opted for this one which came with an LC SFP.
I had already configured a trunk on one of the 3570's interfaces, so I plugged it in, connected power and plugged in the existing SFP (from the 2960) and LC multimode cable and, boom, it worked! It was instant and immediate, wasn't expecting that as past history with finding compatible SFPs for getting different bit of equipment talking to each other has been less than smooth!
Kept the SFP that came with this in case I need it at a later date but very impressed.
I've purchased a TP-Link PoE splitter that can provide the 5v this media converter requires so I don't have to have a UK mains socket in the rack with this device. Part of the work was to also get rid of all UK mains sockets and use IEC C14 power strips exclusively so this defeated that concept somewhat...
Just in case anyone else wants to do this, the supplied cable on the TP-Link PoE splitter is a 5.5mm/2.1mm (Ext/Int) on each end.
The plug that comes with the Media Converter is 5.5mm/2.5mm so you'll need the following to adapt it for use:
https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005KCGM96/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
That last bit is coming and I'll update if it doesn't work. Was hoping to find a dedicated cable with a 2.1mm plug on one end and a 2.5mm plug on the other but no immediate joy...
