“We have been installing EdgeMarc devices for a couple of years now for several types of data and voice applications. With the 4500 series, I can accommodate the needs of the majority of my clients’ data, voice and video networking needs with a single platform. I also have a single management interface which simplifies the setup and support of the router and switch.” said Boyd Webb, VP of Engineering at Digital Agent.
