D-Link Targets Education Sector
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, CA, Jul 13 (MARKET WIRE) --
D-Link, the end-to-end computer networking solutions provider for
consumer and business, has developed customized solutions to meet the
needs of the education sector, including the next-generation networking
and connectivity products required by today's students and staff, plus
ongoing service, at no extra cost.
D-Link's value proposition to educational institutions includes:
-- A tailor-made pricing program -- to help this sector make the most of
scarce resources.
-- "Green" products -- environmentally friendly manufacturing practices,
RoHS compliance, and switches that include D-Link Green(TM) technology. D-
Link Green switches conserve energy and save money without any loss of
performance by automatically detecting link status and network cable
length, then adjusting power accordingly.
-- Products ideally suited to the education environment -- D-Link's line
of network products, for instance, provide educators and students with
fast, reliable data flow between servers and computers. In Washington, Mo.
the St. Frances Borgia High School updated its Wi-Fi network with D-Link(R)
wireless switches and access points to boost coverage and deliver improved
wireless reliability, manageability and security.
-- Superior service -- next business day replacement on defective
products, free unlimited 1-800 local technical support, free product
training, free network assessments, free firmware upgrades on all business-
class products, sales, engineering, technical & RMA support, plus a
warehouse facility for immediate delivery. Additionally, all D-Link
xStack(R) managed switches carry a lifetime hardware warranty.
"In today's economy, the education sector is looking for value in
addition to performance, reliability and an unrivalled price/performance
ratio," said Nick Tidd, VP of Sales for D-Link Pan America and VP of
Marketing for D-Link North America. "We are committed to helping the IT
Departments of this sector deliver this value to students and educators
with affordable high performing end-to-end networking tools. We also want
to assure them that D-Link stands by its products for the long term, and
continues to look for ways to provide additional services."
"We're familiar with D-Link, we know they're reliable, and similar options
were just ridiculously overpriced," said Stefan Adams, Borgia's IT
director. "Why use something else when D-Link will accomplish exactly the
same thing for a quarter of the cost? D-Link offers a huge range of
products, so it's a one-stop shop. It just makes sense to go with D-Link"
