Planning for Visibility at Cisco Live! U.S. 2016

After attending Cisco Live Berlin back in February, we marked our calendars for July 10 to July 14 when the show comes to Las Vegas, NV. The Cisco Live shows are meant to bring the world’s foremost technology innovators together for an event filled with educational and networking opportunities.

3 Protocols You Need to Know Before Increasing Network Speeds

Traffic demands have spiked dramatically over the past five years, and gigabit Ethernet isn’t cutting it in enterprise networks anymore. While many companies have started making the transition from 1G to 10G, the next transition is pretty steep.

on 2/25/16 9:18 AM By | Chris Bihary | 0 Comments | TAPs vs SPAN Events & News Cisco Solutions
We had a blast at Cisco Berlin 2016 this past week with the 12,000+ attendees. German attendance was strong, but there were plenty of people from large industrial manufacturers, governmental agencies, telecom and more representing locations from around the globe. We met a lot of great networking professionals while supporting our technology partner, Cisco, as we focused on showing our commitment to EMEA and network access points (TAPs). However, even with so many impressive networking pros, we’re always surprised how many of them still use SPAN ports. As seen in our TAP’d In Cisco Berlin video – we converted many of them!
