SAN FRANCISCO, CA, Mar 03, 2010 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) — RSA CONFERENCE — Interface Masters Technologies, an network management company leader and innovator in networking solutions, today announced its family of 10Gb Switches. Niagara 2924 is the first member of the family, a 24 Port, 10 GbE fully managed switch that is designed to integrate with Datacenter, Blade servers, Carrier Ethernet and Metro Ethernet devices, HPC clusters, enterprise storage systems, IT Security Appliances and Central Office applications. The system is built for optimal flexibility enabling multi-mode or single mode fiber media configuration and connectivity to 10G or 1GE networks via SFP+ or SFP connectors. Based on 10 Gigabit Marvell’s Prestera packet processor, the Niagara 2924 possesses a powerful and full-featured network management solution suite that can be managed remotely via the management or console port, enabling full control over line-rate switching, routing and filtering.
“The Niagara 2924 introduces the network management technology and Enterprise market a scalable 10GE switching platform based on Marvell’s technology that utilizes highly dynamic and full-featured switching architecture,” states Ben Askarinam, founder and CEO of Interface Masters Technologies. “We are pleased to address the growing market demand for line-rate 10GE performance with a powerful fully managed solution that will address a multitude of applications.”
The Niagara 2924 enables 10GE throughput to be realized in any datacenter deployment by leveraging the Marvell 10GE switches extensive feature set to significantly improve server efficiency, packet processing, power utilization, network performance monitoring and data transfer speeds. The Niagara 2924 provides features that are essential to enterprise Search Engine Optimization, datacenter servers and appliances including:
– Wirespeed Layer 2 through Layer 4 Filtering Capabilities based on
Protocol, Source and Destination IP address, MAC address, Port number
and VLAN tags
