SMC Networks Appoints Specialist Distributor

Announcement posted by SMC Networks 15 Feb 2002

SMCs Targets VoIP, Gigabit & Wireless.
SMC Networks, a leading solutions provider of networking hardware products, announced today the appointment of Veritech Australia Pty Ltd as authorised specialist distributor.

Veritech joins ASI Solutions and IT Wholesale as authorised distributors for Australia. While ASI focuses on the Telco, government and education markets and IT Wholesale in the small to medium enterprise space, Veritech will focus on the VoIP, Gigabit and Wireless solutions markets.
SMC offers resellers award winning quality products with healthy margins, said Livio Mazzon, Veritech Managing Director, Combining that with Veritechs true value-added reseller services makes for a very successful formula.

Having been in distribution, myself, for 15 years, the last thing I wanted to do was appoint distributors who compete head-on for the same business, I never understood that strategy, said Michael Calculli, SMC Networks Country Manager. It makes more sense appointing specialist distributors who assist you in targeting the different sectors of the market, he said.

SMC recently won, not one but two prestigious PC Magazine Editors Choice Awards for entry level switches with their TigerSwitch II (SMC6624M) and for broadband routers with their Barricade Wireless Router (SMC7004AWBR), competing against a whos who of networking vendors.
