Extreme Networks Summit X450a switches provide data center customers with a switching solution that combines lower operating cost along with easier deployment and management.

Aziz Ala'ali, Regional Director for Extreme Networks, Middle East & Africa, said:
"Customers are converging storage onto Ethernet technology to drive lower costs, boost simplicity and performance. By testing our products with Dell to ensure compatibility, we are able to bring to our customers a high performance, easy to manage and operate solution at very compelling price points compared to traditional SAN solutions."
