TP-Link Mc220l
Hello together I have a Sunrise Gigabox (fibre 10Gbit/s). This Gigabox does not fit into my distribution cabinet. I would like to move this box into the living room. There I have an Ethernet port which is patched to the distribution box. I would like to install the connection as follows: OTO box -> (connection with single mode fibre optic cable) TP-Link MC220L -> (connection with RJ45 Cat. 5e cable) box in the living room -> (connection with RJ45 Cat. 5e cable) Sunrise Gigabox. Problem: My TP-Link MC220L does not receive any data from the OTO socket. Why is this?

Sunrise does XGS-PON on 10 Gbit/s......that could be the problem here - apart from the CAT5e. The transceivers only work with the older connections that run on GPON.
Ethernet copper cables Cat. 5e support up to the frequency range of 100 MHz and achieve a throughput of up to 1 gigabit per second ("Gigabit Ethernet"). - However, your Sunrise Gigabox (fibre 10Gbit/s) delivers ten times that.
What you need is not a Cat. 5e, but a Cat. 6a Ethernet copper cable. The TP-Link MC 220L with one 1 Gigabit/s fibre and one 1 Gigabit/s copper cable connection is also ten times too slow.
