Ed Callacher, Networking Divisional Manager at OpenPSL said, "OpenPSL focuses on delivering tangible benefits to our customers and providing partners with products that secure competitive advantage".
"To achieve these goals, we pride ourselves on linking with organisations that produce leading-edge technology to ensure our offering remains ahead of the market".

In 2005, ZXTM gained significant industry recognition, winning six significant awards both in the UK and the US, and saw rapid and increased adoption, largely through a number of new partnership agreements.
Steve Webb, vice president of sales at Zeus Technology, said: "The power of ZXTM adds significant strength to any reseller's portfolio".
"Zeus is moving away from a direct sales model to become a partner-oriented organisation, therefore it is key for us to continue building our presence in the Channel this year".
"By working with first-rate distributors such as OpenPSL, we are well positioned to reach new customer markets".
