Roswell, GA -- (SBWire) -- 02/18/2011 -- Force10 Networks, Inc., a global technology leader, today announced that LeadMaster has selected high-performance, low-latency top-of-rack S-Series™ access switches from Force10 Networks. The Atlanta-based customer relationship management (CRM) software provider selected Force10 1/10 Gibabit Ethernet switches as part of an overall network refresh designed to improve reliability and performance and better position the business for rapid changes in the marketplace.“Many price and performance factors were considered as we evaluated switches for our nextgenerationnetwork,” says Andy Brownell, LeadMaster Chief Operating Officer. “The S-Series stood alone with its ability to deliver dependable and sustained performance, complete redundancy, affordable price points and a modular operating system that provided powerful management features.”
S-Series Switches Contribute to Lower Costs and Greater Customer Confidence
The S50N access switch runs on the modular Force10 Operating System (FTOS), which delivers the stability and management functionality required in virtualized deployments. For example, Force10’s VirtualView software provides real-time network and application traffic monitoring for virtualized data centers. FTOS leverages a distributed, multiprocessor architecture coupled with non-blocking, low-latency switching to offer the performance capabilities that LeadMaster wanted as it built out its next-generation environment.The cloud computing sales lead management/CRM software provider recognized that FTOS maintained a stable code base with an industry-standard common management interface and tool set that would contribute significantly to reducing operational expenses, which leads to an overall lower cost of ownership. Port density also plays a role in lowering costs. The compact, highdensity S50 switch provides 48 GbE access ports and up to four optional 10 GbE uplinks in just 1-RU. As network demands continue to increase, scalable stacking technology supports 384 GbE ports with up to eight S50Ns. “As a cloud computing lead management/CRM software provider, LeadMaster is keenly awarethat providing a reliable, high-performance, world-class network architecture is a fundamental contributor to revenue generation,” says Arpit Joshipura, chief marketing officer, Force10 Networks. “With all of its performance and management functionality, deploying S-Series access switches will help ensure customer confidence remains high due to the fast and reliable performance of its network.”
