PR Newswire (US)
BOCA RATON, Fla., Feb. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- The Tolly Group, in
partnership with Terremark Worldwide, Inc. and Siemon will host
Switch Interop 2007 this month in Miami with the aim of providing
industry switch makers with an independent forum to benchmark the
Layer 2 and Layer 3 interoperability of their products. Switch
Interop is a non-competitive study jointly funded by participants
to prove interoperability amongst each other, and with installed
devices from Cisco Systems, Inc., which are common in enterprise
networks. Leading switch makers such as 3Com, Alcatel-Lucent, Blade
Network Technologies, Enterasys Networks, Extreme Networks, Foundry
Networks, Fujitsu, HP, IBM are among the companies that have
already signed on to Switch Interop 2007. "In today's enterprise
networks, the versatility and value that a switch provides is
driven in large measure by its ability to interoperate with other
equipment," said Kevin Tolly, president/CEO/founder of The Tolly
Group. "Switch Interop is a level playing ground for vendors to
assess interoperability and report on their capabilities to the
buying public." The Tolly Group, the IT industry's leading
independent authority on benchmarking switches and other networking
equipment, will allow vendors to test their switch(es) alongside
other vendors to prove areas of interoperability and establish, for
buyers, that their platforms have been validated by an independent
third party. By participating in Switch Interop 2007 companies can
show prospective buyers how their products compare against other
leading switches. "We are pleased to partner with The Tolly Group
in this important study," said Marvin Wheeler, Chief Operations
Officer of Terremark Worldwide, Inc. "The results of this extensive
interoperability testing, conducted at Terremark's NAP of the
Americas, will enable us to provide our customers and the industry
with enhanced knowledge of the tested products as we continue to
expand our lab testing program at the NAP." About The Tolly Group
