After being annoyed by my cable internet, I looked at my downstream SNR is around 40-37 db. My upstream is a worse with two 16 QAM and two 32 QAM. I wondered if there was a splitter in my coax cables in the little network box.

Turns out, I have fiber coming in that is converted to coax cables, with a adtran RFoG micronode 5-42/54-1002 MHz, then I connect my modem via coax cables running in the walls.

Coming from a direct fiber, I wondered in by naivety if I could simply just hook up another converter, that takes the fiber input and converts it to ethernet. Is this even possible ?
