Mirage Networks Launches Green Product Line
New NAC Solution Offers Increased Performance While Decreasing Power and
Cooling Requirements
AUSTIN, Texas (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) September 23, 2008 --
Mirage Networks, developer of patented,
full-cycle
Network Access Control (NAC) technology, today announced the release of
a new “green”
product suite that gives customers increased performance while
drastically improving energy efficiency. The new appliances provide a
solution for customers who must address the rapidly increasing costs of
powering and cooling data centers as required by local, state and
federal mandates.
An analysis of recent industry data shows that up to 40 percent of data
center operating costs are power and cooling-related expenses, ranking
second just below labor. Mirage’s latest
solution eases that financial burden for customers by improving the
performance per watt -- or how fast a unit does its work and how much
energy it consumes in the process -- of NAC appliances. Benchmarks have
shown the new green product line offers a performance per watt
improvement of nearly 700 percent. This includes a 740 percent boost in
pure performance with a decrease in power consumption of 20 percent, and
a reduction in cooling needs by 26 percent. Energy for cooling is a
significant part of energy consumed.
Mirage’s new green product line addresses the
needs of customers who are subject to local, state and federal mandates
requiring organizations in various sectors to reduce energy consumption.
A typical Fortune 1000 using Mirage’s solution
can reduce power and cooling requirements by 20 percent and surpass the
requirements of most mandates. These and other statistics are covered
in-depth in “The Greening of the Datacenter,”
a new podcast released today by Mirage and available for no charge here.
“While there are clear environmental benefits
to more energy efficient products, the tangible cost savings are what
are really driving customers to go ‘green’,”
said David
Thomas, vice president of products for Mirage Networks. “From
consumer gaming consoles to high-end supercomputers, companies in all
areas of computing are pursuing green IT initiatives. We are proud to
continue our leadership in the space by delivering NAC products that
address this need.”
Mirage’s NAC solution enables maximum network
performance by controlling network access, isolating non-compliant and
threatening endpoints, and providing self-remediation capabilities.
Mirage’s network-based solution is the
easiest NAC solution to deploy, as it requires no agent software,
deploys virtually
inline, and works in any network environment.
Mirage solutions are made available through Authorized ChannelFirst
Partners and can also be delivered as a managed service.
