Optical Modules reduce the need for surplus equipment to support network repairs and upgrade

NASHVILLE, TN - November 12, 2014 — Perle Systems, a global manufacturer of advanced Ethernet over Fiber and secure device networking hardware, adds SFP and XFP Optical Transceivers to its product portfolio.

These hot-swappable, compact media connectors provide instant fiber connectivity to networking gear like Media Converters, Switches and Routers. They are a cost effective way to connect a single network device to a wide variety of fiber cable distances and types.

"Optical Modules reduce the need for surplus equipment to support quick network changes and upgrades," says John Feeney, Chief Operating Officer at Perle Systems.
