HP Middle East expanded its telecom hardware portfolio with powerful, carrier grade versions of the company’s most advanced enterprise servers and storage products.
The new offerings provide telecom companies the reliability set by NEBS (Network Equipment Building Systems) requirements, as well as the lower cost and flexibility of industry standard products.
Targeted at service providers and network equipment suppliers, the products include the HP BladeSystem Carrier Grade (CG) platform, the HP ProLiant carrier grade rack mount server and the HP carrier grade storage array.
The new products can be deployed in both telephony and IT networks, enabling customers to operate more efficiently as the two environments converge.
“Customers are looking for flexible, open platforms that deliver greater speed, more agility and lower costs,” said Ayman Dwidar, ISS Value, Blades Business Unit Manager, HP Middle East.
“With expertise in both telecom and IT, HP provides a family of servers that combines the best of both worlds: the cost effectiveness of proven IT platforms plus the reliability and performance of carrier grade platforms”.
Using the most advanced Intel® processors, both the HP BladeSystem and the HP ProLiant platforms double the performance of their predecessors and provide greater energy efficiency.
The two HP carrier grade platforms support a variety of operating environments, including Windows®, Linux, HP-UX, OpenVMS and Solaris from Sun Microsystems.
In addition to blade and rack mount servers, HP offers a large portfolio of telecom software, services and integrated solutions to the world’s 200 major service providers and network equipment suppliers.
