DATA SHEET
As organizations strive for a competitive
advantage, their network infrastructures
must be resilient, secure, and highly
efficient. As requirements to protect,
optimize, and grow the enterprise have
extended from basic connectivity to a
much higher level of intelligent service-
based infrastructures, the network has
evolved to provide even greater value.
