SQL*Plus is not required to connect from Perl, unless you would like to
run SQL*Plus as a piped process or with expect from within Perl.
You will need to (at a minimum) install an Oracle client on the machine
running the Perl scripts, along with the DBI and DBD::Oracle modules.
The README files that are part of the DBD::Oracle distro have more
informations.
