Perle Systems Extends Ethernet to Fiber Media Converter Line

NASHVILLE, TN - May 11, 2010 - Perle is pleased to announce a new range of 10/100/1000 Ethernet to Fiber Media Converters, enabling customers to add the benefits of fiber to their UTP copper-based network.   These new 10/100/1000 Media Converters are also ideal for companies who need to bridge 10/100 devices to a Gigabit backbone.

"It is quite common for companies to have a combination of 10Mb Ethernet, Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet in their network," said John Feeney, COO of Perle Systems. "For example a company headquarters may be using a Gigabit backbone but the remote offices are still using 10 or 100MB Ethernet. Devices on the 10/100 Ethernet switch in the remote branch office can be connected over fiber optic lines to the Gigabit backbone at the headquarters through the use of Perle's 10/100/1000 Converters. They also allow companies to standardize on one type of Media Converter in their network since they support 10, 100 and 1000 MB devices."

Using 10/100/1000 Media Converters, facilities can be connected over public or privately owned fiber optic cable up to 70 km away and they don't need to reinvest in new fiber base switches, routers or firewalls – which are generally 3 times more expensive than their copper based counterparts.

Perle's Media Converter line includes an extensive choice of full-featured solutions. With the use of high-end components Perle guarantees, with a Lifetime Warranty, complete user satisfaction. And, all Perle Media Converters have an on-board microcontroller which deals with error detection and recovery.
