Overview As demands on corporate networks increase, IT executives are being forced to re-think their network infrastructure. Businesses now require more powerful, seamless, and scalable networks that can help increase profitability and accelerate business success. To achieve that success, they are deploying converged applications such as CRM, ERP, video multicasting, and multimedia across their networks, from end to end. Enterprises are looking to converged applications to increase productivity and enhance customer satisfaction. Since business is now done anywhere at any time of the day, uptime is critical to an enterprise's success. Ethernet switching that utilizes a Resilient Terabit Cluster network design meets all of these challenges by providing a scalable, simple, and reliable resilient network that delivers intelligent and secure performance at terabit speeds.
