Westcon-Comztek is providing reseller partners a means to leverage the recent announcement by Linksys that it has re-entered the small and medium business (SME) marketplace, with the launch of seven new unmanaged switches (three with POE) and two new VPN routers.

According to Westcon-Comztek, partners will now be able to once again purchase the much loved Linksys brand, which is now back under the Belkin International brand, and is offering customers a range of business networking and security products designed to cater for the needs of the SME businesses and reseller.

The new range is purpose built for the SME environment and leverages a heritage of more than 20 years in the industry, bringing customers a quality, high-performance alternative for a growing business. According to the company, its line-up of switches and VPN routers is the first in a series of high-performance business networking and security solutions we can expect from Linksys.

The first product suite from the Linksys Business series will include unmanaged switches, unmanaged switches with Power over Ethernet (POE) and VPN routers. Its new Linksys LRT series integrates Gigabit firewall, site-to-site VPN and various remote access VPN technologies into two single solutions.
