SANRAD V-Switch 3000 qualifies for 'Designed for Windows' logo

Johannesburg, 04 Feb 2004

SANRAD's intelligent V-Switch 3000 for iSCSI SAN solutions has earned the "Designed for Windows" logo qualification from Microsoft after passing a rigorous testing program. The V-Switch 3000 is a next-generation storage area network platform that enables corporate organisations to quickly, easily and affordably deploy IP SANs.

"The designation confirms the V-Switch 3000 is interoperable with the Microsoft Windows platform," says Luca Ambrosi, national practice manager, storage, at Square One Solutions Group, a major distributor in SA for SANRAD equipment and solutions.

"The Designed for Windows logo qualification program ensures optimal reliability and interoperability with Microsoft Windows products. For iSCSI devices the Designed for Windows Logo Programme is the most effective way of identifying products that work well with Windows and the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator."

Ambrosi adds that the designation is also an assurance that SANRAD's V-Switch will perform the way it is intended to perform when operating in a Windows-based environment.

"It also demonstrates SANRAD's commitment to delivering highly available, scaleable and easy to manage IP SAN solutions for Microsoft's enterprise-class and mid-tier customer base who require performance, security, investment protection and reliability within a networked storage architecture."

SANRAD V-Switches provide all-in-one iSCSI storage networking for full availability and seamless management of stored information across standard Ethernet networks, offering a complete storage continuity solution that is easy to deploy and has excellent price/performance.

"The iSCSI V-Switches combine a truly interoperable, multiple-port iSCSI gateway with comprehensive storage services for full block-based data access, network volume management, storage continuity and traffic optimisation. These products deliver a new dimension in the availability of vital business information using iSCSI storage area networks (IP SANs)," concludes Ambrosi.
