A short follow up to the net on the article I posted concerning Fiber
Optic Repeaters for Ethernets.
Another vendor has come on the scene :
Fiber Com
Box 11966
Roanoke, Virginia 24022-1966
703-342-6700
Their repeater is similar to many of the others, yet it is TEMPEST
certified. This leads to an interesting paradox - why TEMPEST certify
the box which is attached to an unsecured net, with non TEMPEST
tranceivers ?? Someone must need this certification...
Price quoted by an eager sales type was approx 895/per.
As usual, other people's experiences and recommendations are welcome. I hope
that this helps to reduce the morass of information out there to mere primeval
ooze.
