AMG Systems of the United Kingdom and the USA introduces the AMG Secure-Net SFP carrier, an SFP-based IP-level device that offers 128-bit encryption for traffic over any IP network.
This device operates as an SFP carrier and can host most standard MSA-compliant 100Mb or 1Gb SFP modules.
The Secure-Net SFP carrier transparently envelopes a wide variety of SFPs, enabling full reuse of existing equipment and easy deployment across various infrastructure types, including both fibre and copper lines.
The SFP carrier
The SFP carrier is easy to use with standard MSA-compatible SFP ports on AMG switches
The SFP carrier is easy to use with standard MSA-compatible SFP ports on AMG switches, media converters, and third-party devices, including switches, routers, and servers from other manufacturers.
This removes the need for external power, saving space and reducing cabling costs.
The Secure-Net SFP carrier supports end-to-end static IPsec in transport mode for highly secure 128-bit AES-GCM-ESP encrypted network links in both point-to-point and multipoint deployments.
Network security
Steve Clarke, AMG's Managing Director, confirms, “AMG is known for our innovative approach to solving our customers’ challenges. Network Security is more important than ever.”
“With the AMG Secure-Net SFP Carrier, any device on the network that requires the highest level of security can now be cost-effectively secured using Secure-Net.”
