NBCUniversal Control of Satellite Amplifiers Through Perle Industrial Switch and Media Converters
300ft Ethernet limitation ruled out simple cable run
Nashville, TN, July 11, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Perle Systems, a manufacturer of advanced device networking hardware, reveals that NBCUniversal uses its Industrial Switch and Media Converter to enable network control of satellite amplifiers.
NBCUniversal needed to extend its infrastructure beyond the boundaries of the office building and out to satellites which were beyond the 300ft limitations of Ethernet.
Shaheen Mozaffari, Nabet Earth Station Engineer at NBCUniversal comments, “We just wanted a simple, inexpensive way to extend the network. The 300ft distance limitations of Ethernet meant that we could not run Ethernet, but we had power and fiber in place.”
Perle was able to provide an easy-to-install solution that helped NBCUniversal take a potentially complex project and make it as simple as plugging in a few cables. A Perle Industrial Ethernet Switch was connected to satellite amplifiers in an existing outdoor enclosure. The fiber was then run back to an indoor Media Converter to convert the fiber back to copper.
