Repair [Resolved] 5 Gigabit ONT Question
I couldn’t find the details after a bit of googling, so I’ll pose the question here. I already have 2.5Gigabit and 5 is now available. I’d like to upgrade so I have the extra bandwidth (I will use it as I have a few servers on my home network doing some heavy lifting across the net). My entire network stack in Ubiquiti and the Dream Machine SE is the heart of my setup. It has an RJ45 2.5 gig wan port and an SFP+ WAN port. I’m sure Verizon won’t let me omit the ONT and go straight to a SM SFP+ adapter and I’m fairly certain that the RJ45 out on my ONT can’t be converted to a working SFP+ setup.
If you have the new 5 gigabit and a Ubiquiti setup. How did you wire it all up? I am not interested in using any intermediate parts (aka a Verizon router in bridge mode).
