The Cisco 585 LRE Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) is a bridge device designed for desktop use, offering advanced network functionalities. Specifically, this CPE is compatible with Cisco's Long-Reach Ethernet (LRE) technology, extending Ethernet distances over existing copper-based infrastructure by utilising telephone-grade wiring. It supports up to 15 Mbps speeds over distances of up to 5,000 feet, making it suitable for environments where extending network coverage via traditional Ethernet cables is impractical.
This device is part of Cisco's solution for network extension without the need to install new cabling, helping businesses optimise their infrastructure and extend LAN connectivity to more remote locations. The bridge device offers operating features such as auto-sensing for Ethernet speed and negotiation, enabling compatibility with both 10/100Base-T Ethernet architectures. It includes one RJ-45 Fast Ethernet port for connecting to a local network and one LRE port for connecting to the remote Ethernet side via telephone wiring.
The Cisco 585 LRE CPE is easy to install on a desktop and offers reliable performance for extending the reach of an Ethernet network. Its compact form factor allows for flexible placement, and its low power consumption contributes to energy efficiency. The device is targeted at users seeking an efficient method for extending managed network resources while maintaining existing infrastructure. Additionally, this version is specifically configured for the European market (EU) and is compliant with European standards.
