Did you know that the maximum length of a conventional ethernet cable is merely 100 meters? If you did not, now you do. But then the question remains: isn't 100 meters long enough already?

Introducing Power Over Ethernet and how it can empower your lives. Instead of hiring a technician to come wire your whole place up, POE technology is the perfect short-cut solution

 

Some people love Star Trek, some people hate it, and some people never care for it at all.

Star Trek often seems to just be a joke that is tired.

But this Summer it seems the ultimate revival has happened, and I can give you our raw experience as the entire company took a few hours today to watch the movie together. This outing being part of our quarterly group activity we all do together is a mixed group of young singles, married 30’s and 40’s and from every class and racial back ground imaginable.

The group verdict before heading into the movie was as you would expect.. very tentative. The group verdict when everyone walked out is just this.. Star Trek was Awesome. JJ Abrams is a God.

There you have it, from the cast and crew of the USS Versatek we watched today and cheered on the return of the gallant grew of the USS Enterprise. Its funny, its action packed, its moving (I wept a tear) and it is sexy as all hell. Take this trek on the weekend and enjoy it with your friends, family or loved ones. One thing for sure, just one viewing may very well not be enough.. I am already making plans to go again with other pals and gals.

From the USS Versatek to the rest of the world.. we hope you warp speed your butt to the movies because this is not to be missed. But if you need some Ethernet extenders or DSLAMs and modems. we are your Federation approved vendor J Have good weekend everyone. Ciao!

Pardon the leet speak but VARs are an essential client base at Versa and being one is both a very lucrative and profitable enterprise. This is not just a pitch it's a reality. Value Added Resellers, or Resellers for short often gain more then just a source for their business with our products but they become full fledge business offering turn key solutions when using our products and marketing them to existing or new clientele. From Ethernet Extenders to Fiber Media Converters, DSL DSLAMs, Wireless Access Points the full range of copper and fiber wireless solutions can be had via Versa Technology, Inc.

Versa's range of Ethernet extenders, IP DSLAMs, Fiber Media Converters, switches, Power Over Ethernet devices and High Powered Wireless Access Points provide a one stop location where just about every imaginable data transport solution can be found.

VARS or Value Added Reseller come into their own during these moments. VARS that specialize in High Speed Internet Service, Telco networks are very and highly specialized. Often times the equipment can either be very easy to use and manage, or also often they can also be complicated to install, operate and maintain as many errors in installation, configuration of these last mile solutions and equipment can lead to very expensive do-overs or more trips by the installers to remedy or fix a solution.

If you are in this field you will come to realize as well, that equipment went it comes to Ethernet extenders, DSLAMs, Fiber Media Converters, E1 or T1 Multiplexers and Wireless Access points and Gateways are from a very niche. What more if you are a HSIA provider and attempting to decide which equipment works best and if you had to demo and evaluate everything in the market this endeavor would be both costly and time consuming. Enter the VARs and here they can assist albeit for equipment that are at a higher cost should you buy direct but that cost easily pays for itself when you discover the savings gained from Not deploying the wrong equipment and then having to uninstall, pull out the gear and if you are lucky you maybe able to return some of it for credit.

Versa Value Added Resellers are qualified both through a process that allows us as manufacturers of network equipment to both ensure, school and test that they indeed can support if not build for a client workable and lasting solution using our equipment. With over 14 years of manufacturing as well as deployment experience we are well schooled on how to support our clients as well as our VARS. The process always begins first to try to keep things as simple as possible and when things get hard and complicated offer solid suggestions and pre-configurations and for a finer touch VARS can enter the picture and offer a full range of services, from configuration set up, firmware updates to installation quotes and advice if needed. With both a combined cost effective solution and a valuable partner, equipment such as wireless gateways, DSLAMs, Ethernet extenders and fiber media converters have become both easy to use and one that you do not need to pay for the Brand for example, Cisco, Motorola, Nomadix and bleed out of your nose needlessly to achieve similar if not results that exceed even what they can offer.

Pardon the loaner Mr. President, but your speech was too good not to borrow for our title. The days of paying for the brand in this shrinking economy are done. Just because DSLAM, Switches and Routers are branded with some company that overcharges you for those commercials, does not mean data gets to its destination any faster. 100Mbps is 100Mbps no matter what the model number of your switch is.

 Over the course of Versa Technology 15 year history we have met and talked to every possible tech, engineer or field specialist in the business of internet service providing and telecommunications. We have troubleshot all manner of networking headaches, from security issues to bandwidth and connectivity issues. If you work in this field you already know how hard it can be when dialing a tech support number.  When it comes to switches, modems, dslams, wireless access points, repeaters, Ethernet extenders and media converters we know what we are talking about and you won’t have to call India to figure something out. We will be there every step of the way.

 

From the tech who has never seen a 66 block and works straight out of the manual, to the worldliest telecom network engineer that has 30 years under his belt whom remembers the days when he use to throw up phone lines with spit, gum and some duct tape. We have met and talked with them all. Whether deploying DSLAMs, WAPs (Wireless Access Points), or bridging networks with Ethernet extender. Everyone wants to run to the bigger companies out of fear of the unknown not knowing a smaller company will provide you much better tech support. Smaller companies like Versa Technology care a lot more about than some bigger company that thinks it has bigger fish to fry. We treat every customer the same.

 But the Fear of the Gear exists in all of us, young and old. The flawed thinking that choosing a brand and paying the max dollar will safeguard a decision thus ultimately leading to job security is the equivalent of buying one machine gun when you need a thousand rifles. As great as that machine gun might be, can only buy so many and when it fails the lost is felt and in its vacuum you are left with nothing to fill the void or are so cash stripped you wished you had bought those rifles.

 

Great tech support aside, return on investment is what we are all here for and I guarantee if you are providing internet to customers we will figure out a way to provide you a greatest ROI quicker than anyone else. Talking to us and our coming to see us has been a life saver for many clients, embattled with rising costs of equipment and their own clients who in these times want to pay the minimum from IP DSLAMS or CPE modems, be sure to talk to your Versa contact at sales@versatek.com . Because the difference of spending $20,000 for a job that should cost you only $10,000 these days, can and could be the difference of surviving this economy in style or going down in a blaze of overly lavish spending. Be frugal yet cautious and trust in field experts who can find you equipment that works and prove it too. Get Versa and Get Connected today with solutions that work, makes sense and you can expect to save overnight with just a call or an email.

Versa Technology Ethernet Extender Kit Demonstration. This clip demonstrate the many usages and the function of the Ethernet Extender kit. The VDSL2 technology used to extend the Ethernet network over standard RJ11 phone lines. The distance of the Ethernet Extender can reach up to 4000 feet and at speed of 100MB down and 50MB up.

August 15, 2008, Chino CA - Versa Technology (www.versatek.com) is pleased to announce a new addition to its product line, the VX-VEB160R2. The VX-VEB160R2 Extends Ethernet up to 300 meters at 100Mbps downstream, 55 Mbps upstream and 1km with speeds of 30mbps/6mbps, respectively. The VX-VEB160R2 Ethernet Extender has a switching architecture that supports two RJ-45 Ethernet port for data and two RJ-11 phone jacks; one for the VDSL connection and one for POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) connection.

As bandwidth needs increase, especially with IPTV Triple Play video becoming more and more commonplace, the VX-VEB160R2 can fill in the gaps and cut cost by over 1000% versus digging for new fiber. Using just standard twisted pair while supplying up to 100Mbps, the VX-VEB160R2 really extends the network with the ability to provide up to four 100 Mbps connections on a single Cat 5e cable using four CO devices and four CPE devices.

The VX-VEB160R2 also provides the following:
• One box design, CO / CPE selectable via DIP Switch;
• Supports up to 1536 bytes packet size, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag transparent;
• Selectable target data rate and target SNR margin.

"While network capacity is growing exponentially, so has the cost of developing new network infrastructures. The VX-VEB160R2 Ethernet Extender allows operators to leverage existing copper lines, to provide triple play bandwidth to the end user." Said Michael Lui, Vice President of North American Sales, about why this product will help operators in North America grow. "Not only does this give operators a cost effective solution but it also gives them a ‘Swiss Army Knife’ when building new networks with a pre-existing infrastructure."

Ethostream (www.ethostream.com), a Telkonet Company, is already using the product to deploy high speed internet access to hotel guest across the country. "We are extremely excited with the flexibility the VX-VEB160R2 gives us. Being able to take advantage of the existing copper infrastructure to deliver Ethernet speeds at a low cost allows us to gain the upper hand," explains Matt Koch, Vice President of Hospitality Solutions. "Sometimes retrofitting existing networks isn’t as easy as running new cable or fiber and with construction cost often breaking the bank, the VX-VEB160R2 allows us to update existing networks while adding little cost to the customer."

Availability and Testing

The VX-VEB160R2 is available now and is already being deployed in networks across the world. Currently products are offered with a free 30 day trial to ensure that you get exactly what you are paying for.

Magnets

One of the great features about the VX-VEB160R2 on the bottom of the unit, this way they can be mounted to anything from a Managed switch to a Rail in a central office.
