AMG has recently launched its Secure-Net SFP carrier, which offers 128-bit encryption for traffic over any IP network. The SFP-based IP-level device operates as an SFP carrier and can host most standard MSA-compliant 100Mb or 1Gb SFP modules. AMG’s device works with a variety of SFPs, allowing existing equipment to be reused and easier deployment for different infrastructure types, including both fiber and copper lines.

The Secure-Net SFP carrier can be used with standard MSA-compatible SFP ports on AMG switches, media converters, and third-party devices, such as routers, switches, and servers from other manufacturers. The company states that this not only saves space, but also lowers cabling costs because there’s no need for external power. AMG’s 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”.

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™.”

Tom Exley, AMG Technical Director, adds, “These Secure-Net SFP carriers are a cost-effective alternative to larger overall solutions. In addition, complete out-of-band management ensures the highest levels of security with no access to the configuration of the Secure-Net™ device from within the network or from its local host device.”

“The Secure-Net™ SFP Carrier is another example of a product designed to provide a definitive solution to a known challenge. The product is available now and can be ordered through all AMG channels,” adds Frank Haight, AMG VP of Marketing.
