I want to replace my lan comms with a fiber comms
Does a component exist for sfp module exist
If not has any body had any success with fiber communications
I can obtain the following breakout boards to experiment with.

Re: SFP Module Comms
This type of work is suitable for FPGAs, not for microcontrollers. You can buy Ethernet-to-Fiber converters with Gigabit speeds. A simple microcontroller can handle up to 115200 Baud via UART, it's far away from acceptable Ethernet speed.
Your linked modules good for long distance UART but not for Ethernet.
