Optic Adapter to Ease Upgrades
to Evolving Network Standard - 4/8/2004 |

Companies Save Time and Protect Network
Investments |
|
| Austin, TX, April 8, 2004 — Cypress Industries, today
announced its patent-pending SC to
LC fiber optic adapter. The SC to
LC fiber optic adapter allows SC cables
to be plugged directly into LC connectors,
offering organizations investment
protection for their installed networks
and significant time savings on network
upgrades. |
|
|
| As small form factor pluggable LC
connectors become standard on leading
manufacturers’ networking equipment,
organizations |
|
| are increasingly faced
with the challenge of integrating
new purchases with networking gear
equipped with traditional SC connectors.
The Cypress Industries patent-pending
SC to LC fiber optic adapter facilitates
efficient and cost-effective integration
of newer equipment with LC connectors
with legacy SC connector-based networking
equipment and fiber optic cables,
eliminating the need to replace existing
patch cables or purchase expensive
hybrid cables. |
|
| “Our customers are increasingly
concerned with controlling the costs
and time demands associated with upgrading
their networks while protecting their
legacy investments,” said Tom
Lonsdale, Cypress Industries CEO.
“We responded with a unique
solution that not only helps companies
save time in routine adds, drops and
maintenance but also helps them protect
their infrastructure investments.” |
|
| Occupying about half the space of
SC connectors, the SC to LC fiber
optic adapter’s unique, compact
design helps maximize space in networking
racks and cabinets. Additionally,
the adapter is designed to rotate
90 degrees to allow multiple connectors
to be placed side by side in the narrowest
spacing (4 mm), eliminating the challenges
associated with stacking larger SC
connectors next to or on top of one
another within an array. |
|
| The Cypress Industries SC to LC fiber
optic adapter is available in both
multimode and single mode versions
and can be purchased by calling Cypress
Industries at 866.844.6699. |
