Abstract
A media converter for transmitting data of a wired data network, transmitter, receiver for a media converter of this type, and method for transmitting data of a wired data network, in which a data signal is received via a first medium in accordance with a first network protocol and is converted into a sequence of bits that represents transmitted data on the physical layer of a second protocol, which is based on a different energy form that is present after conversion. A wireless transmission signal in a predetermined frequency band that is subsequently modulated using the sequence of bits, can subsequently be emitted and received on the receiving side as a wireless transmission signal in the predetermined frequency band, which is thereupon demodulated into a sequence of bits that represents data on the physical layer of the second protocol. After conversion of the sequence of bits into a data signal in accordance with the first network protocol, the signal is outputted via the wired data network.
