Does anyone have experience with combining these 2 products ? I would like to use the OM between my router and the SoTM switch and connect to the switch with SFPs and fiber optic cable.

I’m considering something similar, any advice would be appreciated.
@Torben_Rick, thanks for your detailed configuration. Did you get benefits with the fibre link?
I have a Cisco 2960 with an SFP slot so could implement something along the same lines.
Thanks
This is my final setup:
Now with 3 meter OS2 Single Mode Grade B Fiber Patch Cable – Connector LC UPC to LC UPC Duplex - Bend Insensitive - and 50 cm Ethernet Patch Cord – Telegärtner CAT6 U/UTP (LSZH).
I have been a long learning curve - but now I have the fiber setup that I want.
If you want to start with a relativ cheap setup you just need a Active Optical Cable (AOC) and an FMC. Than you are up an running.
AOC looks like this:

Thank you, that is really useful! Looking at FMCs (+LPS on the clean side) and an AOC now…
Great tip on the ferrites as well.
I will also have a go at some point at documenting my system in a similar way, the cabling/PSU permutations are still in experimental mode and growing for me.
Best regards and thank you again!
