Ismosys Takes Mellanox Connectivity Technology Back To Home Market
Ismosys, officially launched in March 09 as a new demand creation vehicle of the Spectrum Electronics Group has expanded its existing partnership with end-to-end connectivity solutions specialist Mellanox Technologies to include Israel. The agreement builds on Ismosys’ existing partnership with Mellanox in Benelux, France, Iberia, Italy, Turkey and the UK & Ireland. Previously Mellanox products were not actively marketed in Israel despite the fact that the company has one of its two Technology Centres in Yokneam south-east of Carmel City and close to The Technion, Israel’s famed Institute of Technology.
AccoMellanox (www.mellanox.com) is a leading provider of end-to-end connectivity solutions for servers and storage that optimise data centre performance. Headquartered in Sunnyvale, California and Yokneam, Israel Mellanox is the world leader of end-to-end InfiniBand technology with a product portfolio that include ConnectX®, InfiniHost®, InfiniScale®, and BridgeX™. The company’s 40Gb/s InfiniBand and 10 Gigabit Ethernet products deliver market-leading bandwidth, performance, efficiency, scalability, power conservation and cost-effectiveness while converging multiple legacy network technologies into one future-proof solution
Adds Nigel Watts, Managing Director of Ismosys: “The addition of Israel to the Ismosys coverage for Mellanox further increases the relationship between the two companies. We are delighted to represent and distribute Mellanox in Israel and I am sure the partnership will be a significant success. Mellanox are well known and established in the Infiniband market and the announcement to enter the 10 gig space is well timed and should provide strong business opportunities.”
