NER to Offer Tripp Lite's Product Solutions for Data Centers

NER Data Corporation (NER) expands data center solutions by offering Tripp Lite products through NER's network of resellers. The Tripp Lite solutions complement NER's current cabinet and UPS portfolio, making the line extremely competitive against higher volume, lower cost manufacturers.

"Tripp Lite is a great addition for us. Their cabinet and accessory lines add more depth to our current offering, including 2 and 4-post racks, wall-mount cabinets, network cabinets, and overhead cable management. Their small-to mid-size data center power protection products provide innovative features not offered by many competitive products," said Rob Huttemann, Vice President at NER. "By adding Tripp Lite products, we are enabling our resellers to compete more aggressively for everyday business."

"We're excited about this new partnership with NER Data," said Bob Nahorski, Tripp Lite Vice President of U.S. Channel Sales. "NER is an innovative leader in the IT industry, with expertise in the design and construction of complete data center infrastructures. Tripp Lite's extensive line of power, network management and rack solutions integrate seamlessly with NER's strategic vision. We look forward to working with NER to distribute cutting-edge solutions that meet the evolving needs of its resellers, integrators, and end users."

Data centers in the United States consume more that 61 billion kilowatt hours of power each year, and data center operators are constantly challenged to mange more complex environments with reduced resources. Conditions like these are why NER is committed to expanding and providing a comprehensive line of data center technologies that increase overall efficiency and reduce consumption.
