PSA Peugeot Citroen France has chosen to use H3C enterprise networking solutions from 3Com as a significant part of its LAN infrastructure. The company expects the H3C solution to help reduce network installation and usage costs while improving network performance for new applications.

“H3C enterprise networking solutions provide high-performance products that offer a rapid return on investment through great price/performance, strong manageability and low energy usage,” says Bernard Etchebarne, 3Com general manager, EMEA South.

“3Com's H3C switches are also the most energy-efficient on the market, using up to 60% less power than competitive networking solutions. This supports PSA Peugeot Citro"en's 'green' objectives.

“Regarding emissions of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas, PSA Peugeot Citro"en is the most efficient carmaker in Europe, with nearly one million vehicles emitting less than 130g/km of CO2 in 2008. Today, roughly one in three vehicles sold by the group emits less than 130 g/km of CO2.”

3Com
