Taking advantage of FTTH
Media converters and good intentions can only get countries so far when it comes to FTTH projects.

The United States is working to overcome this problem through government-subsidized, middle-mile networks, a strategy that is starting to pay dividends.
Perle has an extensive range of Managed and Unmanaged Fiber Media Converters to extended copper-based Ethernet equipment over a fiber optic link, multimode to multimode and multimode to single mode fiber up to 160km.
