In search of the perfect fiber optic router - recommendations needed

Hello everyone,

I’m looking for recommendations for routers that have both a fiber optic cable connection to the WAN and one or two fiber optic connections for the LAN. Can anyone suggest some good options or a website where I can find more information on this topic?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Thanks again to the 2 Lemmy users who responded to my request for a router with 2 SFP ports! Apart from the mentioned options: The solution would be for a home office that would require not only FTTH (fiber-to-the-home), but also FTTD (fiber-to-the-desk). Is this requirement really so rare or so niche? Are there (still) so few people who use an FTTD solution?
- Well, your post is a little bit dated but I just got here.
  
  What you (might) want is FTTR. The cheapest solution I’m aware off is from Huawei. It is very hard to come by if you are not in the right market.
  
  I said cheapest, doesn’t mean it’s inexpensive. https://www.huawei.com/en/news/2023/8/fttr-optixstar-f30
  
  Did you find another way in the meantime?
