Schneider Electric Increases Certainty, Flexibility, Speed of Deployment for Converged IT with Cisco Certification of APC NetShelter SX

ANDOVER, Mass., June 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- #SchneiderElectric, the global specialist in energy management and automation, today announced the #APC NetShelter® SX IT cabinet with Shock Packaging is now certified to ship as a pre-integrated package with #Cisco Unified Computing System ( #UCS ) servers. Through this validation, APC is providing channel partners and customers the assurance of pre-tested, proven converged system compatibility, enabling them to deploy IT faster than ever before. Growing digital demands Today, businesses are facing increased pressure to keep pace with the rapid growth of big data and the Internet of Things ( #IoT ). To support the new demands of these trends, IT environments are becoming highly distributed and converged and must be flexible, easily repeatable and quickly deployable. However, for organizations utilizing Cisco UCS servers, their choice of physical infrastructure support solutions has been greatly limited: until now, pre-racked Cisco UCS servers were authorized for shipment in Cisco R Series racks only. This reduced the ability of organizations to optimize the physical infrastructure in a Cisco UCS converged system, increasing complexity and time to market. It also restricted business for partners.
