Perle Systems Launches SFP Media Converters
NASHVILLE, TN—October 19, 2010 – Perle Systems, a global provider of advanced fiber to Ethernet and secure device networking solutions, today announced an extensive line of SFP Media Converters for end-to-end fiber to Ethernet conversion. The pluggable fiber optics port on the Media Converter allows for flexible network configurations using SFP Optical Transceivers supplied by Perle, Cisco or other manufacturers of MSA compliant SFPs.Perle SFP Optical Transceivers are interchangeable, compact media connectors that enable a single network device, like an SFP Media Converter, to connect to a wide variety of fiber and copper cable types and distances. Also known as mini-GBIC, they provide modularity in locations where easily upgradeable fiber types and distances are a priority.
“Media Converters with an SFP slot provides customers with a cost effective Ethernet to fiber solution using the customer’s SFPs that they have standardized on,” said John Feeney, COO of Perle Systems. “For example, organizations can connect a remote Ethernet device over fiber to a data centre Cisco switch using Perle SFP Media Converters with Cisco SFPs from their existing stock.”
In managed systems, the status of the SFP fiber transceiver, such as voltage and temperature, can be read through the Diagnostic Management Interface ( DMI ), also known as DOM ( Digital Optical Management ).

SFP modules from UBF make fiber optic networks scalable
New technologies with higher bandwidths make demands also on the entire infrastructure between servers and end devices.
Autonegotiation - commonly between Ethernet switches and end devices with RJ-45 ports - is not available for fiber optic connections. Changing from Fast Ethernet to Gigabit Ethernet must be implemented on both sides of the fiber optic line. Already installed multimode cables can also be an obstacle for upgrades because of the reduced distance…
