Verdiem Offers Free IT Energy Management Subscription To Cisco EnergyWise Customers

LONDON, June 12, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    Customers Can Take Advantage of Verdiem's Leading Energy Management Tool during the
Lifecycle of the Switch

    Today, Verdiem [http://www.verdiem.com ] announced the availability of the Verdiem
EnergyWise Accelerator as part of the Cisco EnergyWise Fast-Track program - a free
subscription to the Verdiem Surveyor IT energy management solution for Cisco Catalyst 3K-
and 4K-series switch customers.

    The Verdiem EnergyWise Accelerator provides visibility into the energy usage across an
organization's fleet of information and communications technology (ICT) devices. For as
long as the organization runs a Cisco Network with Cisco EnergyWise, it can freely monitor
the energy consumption of its network equipment and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) devices such
as IP phones and wireless access points. For these same devices, organizations can control
energy usage to lower energy costs for up to one year. Also for one year, Cisco customers
can monitor their entire PC fleet's energy usage and enforce power saving policies for up
to 1,000 PCs. Savings range from 30 to 50 percent which quickly adds up to thousands, if
not millions, of dollars in energy savings.

    "Enterprise-wide monitoring of energy usage with granularity for different device
types is important to establish a baseline energy profile. Once baselines are created,
businesses can lower operating costs by controlling the energy consumption of ICT devices,
particularly the PC, which is the number one consumer of IT energy. With the Accelerator,
Verdiem Surveyor now makes the PC a full-featured EnergyWise device," said John
Scumniotales, president and CEO of Verdiem. "The Verdiem EnergyWise Accelerator gives
Cisco customers a convenient way to evaluate EnergyWise and to begin to realize the
impressive reductions in energy expenditures from their PC fleet and other ICT devices."

    As part of the Verdiem EnergyWise Accelerator, Surveyor 6 extends its leading
EnergyWise support with a solution for hot-plugging of Cisco EnergyWise connected PCs.
Hot-plugging allows mobile laptop users to securely reconnect and automatically rejoin a
Cisco EnergyWise network as they change their physical location.
