Posted on Thursday, February 2, 2012
PITTSBURGH, PENNSYLVANIA – February 2, 2012 – Black Box Corporation (NASDAQ:BBOX), a leading communications system integrator dedicated to designing, sourcing, implementing and maintaining today’s complex communications solutions, announced today that it has obtained two important specializations from Cisco: the Advanced Unified Computing Technology Specialization and the Advanced Unified Fabric Technology Specialization. These specializations recognize that Black Box has fulfilled the role-based training requirements to sell, design and deploy Cisco® Unified Computing System B-series technology solutions and Cisco® Unified Fabric Technology solutions within the Cisco Data Center portfolio.
“Black Box is pleased to have received these specializations,” commented Peter Marquis, vice president, Black Box Network Services. “These credentials help serve as a springboard for us to serve customers in the rapidly emerging data center space. Enterprises today have very complex data center requirements and these specializations help our teams deliver superb design, deployment and day 2 support services for the virtualization of unified communications applications.”
The Cisco Unified Computing System is a next-generation data center platform that unites computing, network, storage access and virtualization into a cohesive system.
