Juniper Networks (NYSE: JNPR), the
industry leader in network innovation, today announced that Wi-Manx, one of the
Isle of Man's leading communications and IT solutions providers, serving
customers with a wide range of internet, voice and data solutions, has chosen Juniper
Networks® EX Series Ethernet Switches and MX
Series 3D Universal Edge Routers as the backbone for its new
state-of-the-art data center and IPv6 network.
Wi-Manx's Heywood House data center and IPv6 network will feature the latest
generation of redundant power systems, cooling technology, access control,
high-speed connectivity options and server systems. From the new data center,
Wi-Manx will launch a comprehensive range of hosting services including
dedicated servers, co-location solutions, virtual servers, cloud hosting,
complex hosting, domain-name and e-mail services.
"This data center is critical to our strategy of building on international
success and becoming a truly global player in the data center market, enabling
us to offer the very latest technology at a competitive rate," said Joe Hughes,
chief technical officer, Wi-Manx. "We wanted leading-edge technology for our
network and undertook a detailed research and evaluation phase where we
considered a number of leading vendors. We selected Juniper Networks because it
enables us to provide fast, secure, reliable Ethernet connectivity and deploy
our services more quickly and cost-effectively. "
"Service providers seeking to play on the global data center stage need to
build networks that deliver on ever-increasing requirements for quality of
service, network performance and availability," said Mike Marcellin, vice
president, systems strategy and marketing, Platform Systems Group, Juniper
Networks. "By choosing to partner with Juniper Networks, Wi-Manx will be able to
provide a differentiated user experience and scale its network to support
increasingly higher amounts of bandwidth, services and subscribers."
Powered by Juniper Networks single operating system, Junos®, the MX Series
provides a consistent operating environment that streamlines network operations
and improves the availability, performance and security of all types of services
supported at the Universal
Edge. The MX80 3D Universal Edge Router integrates carrier Ethernet
capabilities and a modular port concentrator design to create a cost-effective
solution for environments with limited space.
The EX Series Ethernet Switches feature Virtual Chassis fabric technology
designed to enable up to 10 interconnected EX4200 switches to operate as a
single, logical system. Virtual Chassis fabric technology reduces the number of
managed devices in the network and lowers capital and operating expenses,
providing the highest levels of availability for demanding converged data, voice
and video environments and delivering the most reliable platform for unifying
enterprise communications.
