SANTA ANA, Calif., Jul 07, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --
V7, the exclusive house brand for Ingram Micro Inc.
(NYSE:IM)
and
provider of premier computer accessories worldwide, today unveiled a new
line of affordable, high-performance networking switches to be sold
through Ingram Micro's global network of value-added IT resellers and
e-tailers.
Ideal for small or growing networks requiring reliable and affordable
performance, V7 8-Port and 5-Port Unmanaged 10/100/1000 Ethernet and
Gigabit Networking Switches allow small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) and
home users to connect multiple computers as well as cameras, print and
media servers, storage devices, VoIP phones and more to an Ethernet or
wireless LAN without creating network bottlenecks.
Available with an option of two speeds (fast Ethernet or Gigabit), the
V7 line is easy to install and use, standards-based and fully compatible
with existing 10/100 and 10/100/1000 network infrastructure.
"Our new line of reliable and affordable switches takes expanding
networks to the next level in connectivity speed and efficiency," said
Rainer Kozlik, vice president and general manager of Ingram Micro's
Global V7 Private Label Group. "For a low price, our switches can serve
as the network backbone for sharing e-mail, printers, files, multiplayer
games, hard drives and more, creating significant value for VARs and
customers alike."
With prices starting well below top-name brands, the unmanaged five-port
and eight-port Ethernet switches are offered at $24.99 (model #
NS0132-N6) and $49.99 (model # NS0142-N6) suggested retail price (SRP)
respectively. The Gigabit five-port and eight-port unmanaged switches
are available at $59.99 (model # NS1132-N6) and $79.99 (model #
NS1142-N6) SRP respectively.
"With V7's new unmanaged networking switches, small-office/home office,
small businesses and the geared-up home user can enjoy increased network
functionality without having to spend a lot of money or have advanced
training," said Robert Forster, director of product marketing for Ingram
Micro's Private Label division. "Once you connect the hardware, your
switch is in business and so is your network."
All V7 networking switches are backed by Ingram Micro's global
distribution network and have a one-year warranty. For more information
