Connect Tech Announces Important Certifications for its Ethernet-to-Serial Devices!

Guelph, Ontario - May 28, 2008

Connect Tech Inc. formally announced today that its Blue Heat/Net Ethernet-to-serial devices have become IECEE certified and UL listed. 

Blue Heat/Net products ease expandability for local area networks (LANs). The Blue Heat/Net provides a method of networking serial devices so that they do not require traditional serial connectivity. These Ethernet-to-serial devices enable users to add virtual serial ports wherever needed, while allowing the ports to be controlled from anywhere on the network or via the Internet. “As a player in the global market, Connect Tech realizes the significance of complying with recognized standards around the world,” said Michele Kasza, VP Sales. “We have taken steps to ensure our Ethernet products receive IECEE and UL approvals.”

Both the Worldwide System for Conformity Testing and Certification of Electrotechnical Equipment and Components (IECEE) and the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) are product safety certification organizations that write and apply product safety standards around the world.  Connect Tech is pleased to inform that both organizations have given certification to our Blue Heat/Net devices.

IECEE’s CB Scheme test certificate attests that products receiving this certification have passed test conditions and are in compliance with the requirements relevant under IEC Standards. The UL listing for Connect Tech’s Blue Heat/Net devices indicates that our equipment has been investigated, tested and found to comply with the Standards for Safety as written by the UL. Please see below for a complete list of safety standards that Blue Heat/Net is compliant with.

All two, four and eight port Blue Heat/Net models that include DB-9 connectors comply with the following Safety Standards:

UL 60950-1, 1st Edition, 2006-07-07 (Information Technology Equipment - Safety - Part 1: General Requirements)

CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1-03, 1st Edition, 2006-07-07 (Information Technology Equipment - Safety - Part 1: General Requirements)
