NetEx releases Hyper Powered IP

NetEx, a leader in high-performance data transport solutions, has announced a new storage application throughput standard that eliminates the need for expensive and complex networking equipment while solving the TCP/FCIP/iSCSI/iFCP/FTP throughput issues often associated with business-class WAN connections.
NetEx’s Hyper Powered IP provides the simplest and highest performing WAN platform for accelerating the broadest range of storage applications in the industry.
Hyper Powered IP leverages common IP networks while enabling high-speed connections up to OC12 - as much as a 1,000 percent increase in throughput for many applications. The new standard either works with or replaces existing high-speed storage transport products using the company’s unique IP acceleration technology, a simple appliance-based configuration that easily attaches to an existing network infrastructure and requires no changes to servers/storage controllers, applications and/or network devices. Hyper Powered IP is transparent and non-disruptive to operations and ensures non-stop data availability.
“Organisations seeking greater efficiency and additional IT cost containment should add NetEx to their short list,” said Greg Schulz, Senior Analyst for Evaluator Group. “The capability to aggregate IP-based storage applications, running them at OC12 speeds concurrently, should solve WAN degradation issues, and the reduction of required WAN hardware and maintenance costs is attractive.”
