Comworx VL 8-port managed ethernet switch launched
Dallas, Tx (USA)
According to Andrew Acquarulo Jr., Comnet President and COO, “There was a definite need in the market for a feature-rich managed ethernet switch for use in applications where network traffic requires management.”
“This Comnet eight-port, all-electrical managed ethernet switch is different in that there is no fibre interface offered, as not every user has a fibre optic network. There is a very large demand for simple managed ethernet solutions for price conscious applications that do not require the environmental hardening or fibre optic interface offered by traditional Comnet products. The Comworx VL CWFE8TX8MS managed switch solves this challenge”, stated Acquarulo.
“With the introduction of the Comworx VL CWFE8TX8MS managed switch, Comnet has made available a complete commercial rated product line for the specific needs dictated by industrial security applications,” said Skip Haight, Comnet VP of Marketing. “This new line of switches has been designed for applications where functionality and performance is mandatory, but low cost is the primary requirement. In our test marketing of the Comworx VL switches we found that the Comnet customers who previewed these products appreciated the quality versus cost paradigm offered by the products, but the difference to them was that they were backed by a real US based company that offers the level of support needed to ensure success”, Haight concluded.
