Mellanox Distributed by Synnex GSA Schedule

Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. announced that its full lines of end-to-end IB and Ethernet interconnect solutions are now available through SYNNEX Corporation’s General Services Administration Schedule.

SYNNEX government solution providers can now deliver Mellanox’s solutions to U.S. federal, state and local government agencies, with more efficiency and minimal administrative overhead.

GSA contracts are the most widely used government contract vehicle for procurement by U.S. federal, state and local governments. Due to pre-negotiated pricing, terms, and conditions that streamline the government sales process, GSA contracts simplify the procurement process and enable government agencies to make purchases quickly and easily.

Through SYNNEX, the only distributor to offer Mellanox on its GSA Schedule, government agencies have better access to and can reduce costs associated with deploying Mellanox’s high speed, low-latency end-to-end interconnect solutions.

“Many government agencies need high-performance networking for complex projects that require the processing of large amounts of data over distributed systems,” said Dale D’Alessio, CEO, Mellanox Federal Systems, a subsidiary of Mellanox, responsible for driving business development for all federal government agencies and the federal integrator market. “Mellanox has delivered high-performance interconnect solutions to meet government IT networking needs for over 10 years. Now that our full lines of IB and Ethernet solutions are available through the SYNNEX GSA Schedule, government agencies can deploy our products more quickly and at a lower cost.”

Mellanox’s end-to-end IB and Ethernet interconnect solutions provide high bandwidth and low-latency for data center networking and application performance. Products are specified for high-speed storage networks and the clustering of processors, parallel file processing, GPUs and heterogeneous storage platforms. Mellanox delivers products for high-performance computing, cloud, Web 2.0, big data and virtualization solutions.

“By teaming up with Mellanox Federal Systems, we’re able to provide our government solutions partners and their customers with simple and efficient access to high end interconnect technologies,” said Eddie Franklin, VP, sales, public sector and vertical markets, SYNNEX Corporation. “Through the SYNNEX GOVSolv group, our government solutions partners have access to various top manufacturers on our GSA Schedule, allowing them to leverage our logistics capabilities without incurring the corresponding administrative overhead.”
