Leviton Fiber Connect Joins Cisco Technology Developer Program, Completes Interoperability Testing

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Leviton, Inc., a global data center integration firm specializing in the development of connectivity products and services for the physical layer of a data center, announced that it has joined the Cisco Technology Developer Program as part of the program’s Data Center Storage Networking solution category. In addition, Leviton Fiber Connect’s High Density Data Center Port Replicated Patch Panel Series, F8xLx-576 and interconnect components have successfully completed interoperability testing with Cisco 3.0.

The Cisco Technology Developer Program (http://www.cisco.com/go/ctdp) unites Cisco with third-party developers of hardware and software to deliver tested interoperable solutions to joint customers. Members of the program share Cisco’s strong commitment to customer service and satisfaction and are required to undergo interoperability testing based on criteria set forth by Cisco. With Cisco Technology Developer Program member offerings such as Leviton Fiber Connect’s High Density Data Center Port Replicated Patch Panel Series, F8xLx-576 and interconnect infrastructure, customers can more quickly deploy a broad range of Cisco Compatible business applications that can enhance the capabilities, performance, and management of their Cisco network.

*The interoperability testing is designed to simulate typical customer configurations, and does not replace the need for on-site testing in conjunction with actual implementation.
