Phybridge

April 7, 2016

Phybridge is the leader in PoLRE (Power Over Long Reach Ethernet) switch technology. Phybridge was the first company to introduce switch technology that delivers Ethernet and PoE over a single pair of wire with four times the reach of traditional switches. Phybridge long reach Ethernet switches are the standard against which others are measured. The award-winning UniPhyer and PoLRE switches leverage a single pair of UTP cable and the CLEER and EC switch leverages coax cable to deliver PoLRE technology.

The Phybridge switch innovations allow businesses to optimize the LAN for convergence delivering quality of service, voice continuity, the most secure converged platform and a simple network to manage. This is achieved by moving the LAN convergence point from every desktop to a single point in the central closet.

Benefits Include:

  • Lower overall total cost of ownership, allowing customers to allocate more of their budget on applications hence driving a better return on investment
  • Voice Quality of Service, regardless of data loads and with no data LAN dependencies
  • Voice continuity, even if data LAN fails
  • Most secure network topology, given the physical separation of voice
  • Easy network to manage, given the physical separation of voice
  • Future-proofing the LAN; no need to change IP phone or PoE every time you upgrade your LAN to support greater speed requirements. With other data switches in the market, the IP phone acts as a switch for the data device and you will need to replace the IP phone and the POE with every upgrade.
