Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: In that respect


Optical GBICs and SFP's along with optical cables are designed to run at certain wavelengths so it does matter which compatible components you choose for your data center application. Optical cables are usually color coded. Think of an optical cable as a waveguide for light much like metal waveguides are used for microwave RF propagation.

Most everything you said is true in a data center BUT- optical Ethernet to a network streamer for audio applications offers no practical benefit - IMHO.
