Posted on: Wednesday, 20 July 2005, 06:00 CDT
SALT LAKE CITY, July 20 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of its on-going strategy to expand product presence in the U.S., silex technology america, Inc. today announced it has made three of its more popular networking devices available at CompUSA(R) stores nationwide.
silex's H260U internal print server for popular HP LaserJet/Business Inkjet printers with an EIO interface, SX-1000U USB device server, and SX- 5000U2 multi-port USB device server are immediately available at CompUSA stores.
"CompUSA is one of the largest retailers of networking technology in the country," said Keith Sugawara, silex vice president networking division. "This relationship expands our market opportunities by making silex products available to retail consumers."
The silex products are three of the most popular and are designed to increase productivity and return on investment of nearly any organization or corporate enterprise. They are, however, especially suited to meeting the networking needs of home and small business owners.
* The silex H260U is a more affordable and feature rich internal print server designed to network HP LaserJet/Business Inkjet printers with an EIO interface -- approximately $150 less than the comparable HP Jetdirect print server, the H260U is a more affordable drop-in replacement for Jetdirects. It also includes an additional USB port to connect a second printer -- such as a color USB printer. It has a MSRP of $199.99 at CompUSA. * The silex SX-1000U is a single port USB 2.0 device server. It is especially suited for providing network functionality of all the features found on All-In-One (AIO) or multi-function (MFP) printers including scanning, memory card access, printing, and faxing. The SX-1000U also provides network connectivity for a variety of other USB devices for use among many people on a network. It has a MSRP of $99.99 at CompUSA. * The silex SX-5000U2 is a four-port USB 2.0 Hi-Speed device server. It provides high-performance networking capabilities for multiple USB devices. This provides convenience, increased productivity, and decreases the costs of purchasing many USB devices for individual workstations. The SX-5000U2 networks USB scanners, USB external hard drives, AIO/MFP printers, USB printers, and many other types of USB devices. It has a MSRP of $199.99 at CompUSA.
"Businesses and consumers increasingly need to store, scan or print large amounts of data across a network," said Doug Lane, divisional merchandise manager at CompUSA. "These new silex products will give our customers freedom to share USB-enabled hardware, which traditionally could only be used on one computer, with an entire workgroup."
Availability
silex's H260U print server, SX-1000U device server, and SX-5000U2 device server are available immediately at all CompUSA stores and at compusa.com. All other silex products are available from silex resellers nationwide.
