Ethernet Switch

For many IT professionals, the only solution to joining Ethernet networks on different floors or in different buildings was an off-the-shelf Ethernet switch - Introducing another possible point of failure, potential issues with correctly switching traffic and costly maintenance updates for increasing outdated network technology.

Enable IT offers a full range of Ethernet Extenders from Point-to-Point (Backbone) runs to Point-to-Multipoint (Ethernet DSLAM - Digital Subscriber Line Access Media) to create an efficient Ethernet bridging solution to a common problem of connecting disparate networks at great distances.

Enable IT’s Ethernet bridging solutions work on the layer 2 - the Data Link Layer of the 7 layer OSI network model. Because the Data Link Layer is not utilized in WAN technologies it can be optimized for enhancing the performance of a network bridge - connecting via a transparent bridge two disparate networks.

Ethernet Extender

Your office has expanded and you need to provide the same networking services on the 2nd floor as you do the headquarters on the 7th or 15th floor of your building. Enable IT’s Ethernet extender shatters the 328 ft. distance limitation of standard IEEE 802.3 Ethernet over existing copper wire at Ethernet’s standard 100 Megabit speed allowing you to look like a genius while extending your network at a reasonable price.

If distance between networks can be measured in miles, Enable IT’s Ethernet extender product line has a solution to bridging the network while keeping your network speed at optimum performance. From an Ethernet DSLAM to a Backbone run, Enable IT offers an Ethernet extender to meet your needs and may even run over an existing copper pair already run between the locations.
