Ready to Serve

Lantronix may not be part of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, or Space Force, but we serve our country in a different way - by servicing those who are responsible for communication networks within these Armed Forces and other US Federal Government agencies. Our Lantronix team (formerly Transition Networks) travels throughout the country meeting with information technology specialists at base shows and other industry events to help provide solutions for their network infrastructure challenges.

Fiber-to-the-desk (FTTD) applications are always of interest with Federal agencies looking to increase network speed, efficiency, and security to desktop PCs, laptops, thin clients, and more. In Federal networks, wireless communications may be prohibited or unreliable, and traditional copper transmission is typically considered insecure. Lantronix fiber PCIe Network Interface Cards (NICs), M.2 NICs, and Scorpion-USB network adapters offer a more secure solution for networks running at 100Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 10Gbps speeds.

Copper-to-fiber media converters are another cost-effective option for extending fiber to the desk, and PoE media converters are particularly useful for connecting VoIP phones or wireless access points (where allowed). With the increased demand for Internet of Things (IoT) devices, media converters can allow the integration of a wide variety of IoT devices, ensuring reliable connectivity throughout the network. Lantronix offers PoE and PoE+ media converters, as well as PoE mini media converters for providing power to connected IP devices in space-constrained applications.

Due to the importance of secure communications, Lantronix unidirectional media converters are another popular solution, particularly with intelligence agencies. A unidirectional device, sometimes referred to as a unidirectional security gateway (or data diode), provides a connection between two or more networks with different security classifications and helps to protect assets by ensuring information is directed only "to" or "from" the appropriate network as designated by the unidirectional media converter.

Hundreds of attendees stopped by the Lantronix booth at the recent Aberdeen Proving Grounds event where as an added bonus, our team handed out some always-popular Lantronix socks along with our advice on handling networking challenges. Many attendees came back the second day wearing their "trending new" Lantronix footwear and also wanting to learn more about the trending new Lantronix AI-driven Out of Band Management Solution, which utilizes AI-driven decision-making to automate routine tasks and make networks more secure and reliable.

Most attendees at the recent events shared their appreciation of the quick response Lantronix provides to their requests for information or quotes, as well as for the high quality of Lantronix FTTD products which are TAA compliant and backed by a lifetime warranty. Under the former Transition Networks brand and current Lantronix brand, we have been providing US Federal Government agencies and Armed Forces with high-quality and reliable products for more than 35 years, and we're ready to serve again this Federal buying season!
