What customers say
It works fabulously simple and fast.
You start by sorting out what type of transceivers you need. Best using the time to charge up the mobility packet which comes with 0% precharge.
After that just connect in the app via BT and start reconfiguring your cable.
It actually took me longer to find out what type of config my switch liked then the actual time the box takes to reprogramm the transceiver.
This solved an actual pain point in our infrastructure which otherwise could probably only would have been solved by unifying our complete network stack.
A perfect solution for naturally growing IT infrastructures.
The Mobility Pack basically means, that you can do all the cool things with the FLEXBOX but in style from the comort of your phone screen.
So I did. And I felt extremely stylish in doing so.
Especially in areas where you do not have the room for a 14 inch screen or let alone a laptop with cables, this littly buddy is a godsend.
If you need to look stuff up your BT connection will time out at some point. Just restart the app and everything will pic up right where it should.
I used the same pic as for my feedback of the FLEXBOX as I use them in tandem. hope it doesn’t raise any issues.
Using FLEXBOX and FLEXOPTIX transceivers mean for us Flexibility. We don’t use so much transceivers but we work with different brands each day.
With a small amount in stock we can configure them with the right specifications for each use. Assuring it will perfectly fit the requirements of our equipments and costs are also reduced considerably.
Setting up either the FLEXBOX and a transceiver on a computer or through the mobile app is just easy as 1,2,3. It tooks us less than 15 minutes between unboxing and using a transceiver.
We really appreciate the mobile option so we can have the FLEXBOX in one hand, a transceiver in the other one and the phone with the app in the pocket for programming on the field.
Thanks FLEXOPTIX for this really useful tool and for extending supported vendors in the future.
We are using FLEXOPTIX industrial grade transceivers in our control systems for power electronics and converters. The FLEXBOX is an invaluable tool, making it super easy and quick to configure transceivers. Even larger numbers can be configured easily with the batch configure option, just plug them in one after the other and the rest happens automatically. The power meter, source control and OTDR features are helpful for lab testing or during commissioning. Thanks, FLEXOPTIX for providing universal transceivers of a high quality at decent prices! Your lightning-fast order processing and shipping speed is also impressive.
Your FLEXBOX rocks. On our Linux workstations we can easily change the vendor and thus save costs. In addition, we are also convinced by the product quality, the support and the handling of the order. Thank you!
