Transmode Systems signs MiTech as UK reseller

Transmode Systems AB, a leading supplier of transmission equipment for fibre optic networks, announced today that it has further strengthened its position on the UK market by signing MiTech as a Value Added Reseller.

Under this agreement MiTech, a prestigious system integrator with 10 years in the networking industry, will resell Transmode's equipment throughout the UK. MiTech will offer a comprehensive package of support to end customers. This will include purchasing, stocking, pre and post sales support and maintenance of Transmode's CWDM equipment.

Transmode is becoming increasingly successful in the UK Optical Networking market, with several new customer wins during the first months of 2003. The agreement with MiTech will allow both parties to build on this success and promises to be a highly prosperous arrangement.

"MiTech have extensive knowledge and experience in this field and we feel very confident that this agreement will boost our penetration of the UK market", says Sean Davies, Transmode's Account Manager in the UK. "Not only does it give us access to an excellent sales organisation, but the fact that we can now offer local support from MiTech is very helpful for British service providers and enterprise customers."

"We believe Transmode's solution to be one of the most flexible and cost-efficient ones on the market today, and we are very happy to be able to offer that to our customers", responds Mogens Hansen, Chief Technical Officer at MiTech.
