Vertiv has announced it has signed a distribution partnership with South African distributor of IT products, Rectron, to significantly strengthen its enterprise offering.
Under the accord, Vertiv solutions are now available through Rectron to meet the growing demand for turnkey infrastructure solutions, capitalising on their expertise in power and thermal management, core and access sites, hyperscale and edge computing.
Mathew Hall, product director at Rectron said: “Our distribution partnership with Vertiv is pivotal in boosting South Africa’s infrastructure capabilities, given the current power shortages in the country. Vertiv is a valuable addition to our offering, and we are working together to provide cutting-edge solutions in power and thermal management, hyperscale and edge computing to resellers in South Africa.”
Vertiv will continue to work closely with Rectron in bringing innovative, holistic solutions to the market, including the latest addition of the rackmountable Liebert GXT5 UPS, which complements the series of edge computing products for small and micro IT environments.
In addition, the vendor has recently launched its enhanced Vertiv Incentive Programme (VIP) which is now available to Rectron resellers.
Pierre Havenga, managing director of Vertiv in Middle East and Africa added: “We have been working with proven, experienced partners for decades. The collaboration with Rectron enables agility and availability for customers in all industries within South Africa. We aim to provide Rectron’s customers with infrastructure excellence so that businesses can operate optimally without having to worry about failures in IT systems, costing companies thousands of dollars.”
