Brocade, a developer of network solutions, announced that Grass Roots Group, a provider of performance improvement services, has installed the company's switch technology to upgrade existing networking infrastructure.
According to Brocade, Grass Roots Group is making a multi-million pound investment to implement Internet Telephony, shift to a VPLS1-based wide area network service, upgrade storage servers and network technology, and rationalize numerous disparate client delivery platforms onto one consolidated portal-based solution called Helix 3.
To facilitate this, and after a full evaluation of vendors, Grass Roots Group has implemented Brocade FastIron Edge X series switches in its UK and USA data centres, along with Brocade FastIron Edge series Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches throughout its global offices. The equipment was supplied by Brocade partner, Calyx, with the roll out completed in October 2009.
Grass Roots Group has two data centers in the UK, locations in the London Docklands and at Heathrow, with a pair of FESX switches deployed at each for resilience providing 1 Gbps server connectivity.
