Gentek Marketing Inc. Announces a Strategic Distribution Partnership With Interlink Networks

Gentek Marketing Inc., a leading global high tech manufacturer of networking, broadband, VoIP and security related technology solutions announces a strategic partnership with Interlink Networks.

Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) January 23, 2005 -- Gentek Marketing, Inc., today announced an agreement with Interlink Networks, a leading developer of network security and access control software.

Gentek is a market leader providing technology solutions to over 200 ISPs and 4000 resellers in Canada. Our channel partners have been asking Gentek for enhanced security solutions. As a result, we are very pleased to offer Interlink Networks award winning LucidLink Wireless security solution in Canada", said John D. Herrington, Genteks General Manager.

In Q4 2004, we decided to expand our solutions and partnered closely with other leading manufacturers involved in the wireless and security markets. Today, we are well on track as a primary security provider for the Canadian channel", states Herrington. The demand from our channel partners for enhanced hard and soft security solutions is increasing at a significant rate. LucidLink performed extremely well on our IP-104G wireless access point and BB0074 ADSL wireless modem/router further enhancing their existing security functions. We expect significant market demand for LucidLink which is ideal for wireless SMB environments requiring enterprise class security. The ease of use, price/performance and robust security for mobile workers is quite impressive."

LucidLink Wireless Security provides enterprise-level network security and access control -- the same high security delivered by an 802.1x RADIUS authentication server -- typically within 15 minutes out-of-the-box. LucidLink protects the wireless network from unauthorized individuals, and simplifies the set-up of wireless access points by automatically selecting the correct options for each device. This eliminates the complicated choices that users normally encounter, which can result in inadequate security, or worse, no security at all. In fact, LucidLink Wireless Security is so easy to use that it can actually be set up with up to 70 percent fewer steps than a conventional Wi-Fi system having no security at all.

Interlink Networks
Gentek has a global reputation for quality products and superb support," says Mike Klein, CEO of Interlink Networks. We are delighted to be added to their line-up of high-performance products. By combining LucidLink with Genteks wireless lineup, we know their support costs will decline, and the security and satisfaction of their customers will increase. Especially because Canada is such a Wi-Fi friendly country, this relationship with Gentek is quite strategic for us."
