<p>Dell Channel Partner Sales Aid Dell Confidential Dell EqualLogic PS4110 Series</p><p>What’s New? Flexibility…whether your customers are building out existing 10 Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure with fibre optic or new cost-effective 10GBASE-T, the new PS4110 series arrays have them covered with both—Copper and Optic, so they don’t have to choose just one. Customers can change out their infrastructure later and not have to change their array. Combine this flexibility with innovative form factors that support either high-density 2.5” or high- capacity 3.5” drives, and we’ve extended the promise of EqualLogic—ease of management, integration with VMware, high performance for mid-range SANS, and an all-inclusive software model—supporting our customers’ growing needs.
