D-Link switches have been utilised in the development of virtual computer labs for George Mason University in Washington DC.
The high-performance computing infrastructure is aimed at helping the institute better manage its computer labs and classrooms across four campuses.
A combination of D-Link DGS 3400 and 3600 network switches were used, offering stacking and redundancy capabilities and 10-gigabit capacity.
The switches will be able to move significant amounts of data from point to point without any noticeable performance degradation.
"We wanted to be able to support learning needs in our classrooms and labs in a proactive, highly responsive way. IT should serve learning - not act as a barrier," said Sharon Pitt, executive director of the division of Instructional Technology at Mason.
"These improvements within our computing facilities will ensure that technology improves opportunities for learning."
Earlier this month, D-Link launched a new power-saving eight-port switch, the DGS-1008D.
