Johannesburg, SOUTH AFRICA – 26 February 2013Panduit Corp., a global leader in Unified Physical InfrastructureSM (UPI)-based solutions, today announced that the company will showcase a new Augmented Reality Tool which provides users with an interactive guide through Panduit’s data centre solutions. Available for download on iPads or iPhones, the tool is designed as an engaging and interactive 'self-serve' application for customers and as a sales engagement tool for partners which provides an overview of Panduit’s expertise in a wide range of data centre environments. Panduit partners can use the Augmented Reality tool in face to face meetings, or at events, to educate and engage with customers and prospects.

At Cisco Expo Booth # G1, Panduit’s application positions the company as a city within the data centre landscape through videos that have been grouped into three “city tours” that address the needs of target customers:

-          Installers: the “Subway Tour”

-          System Integrators: the “Street Tour”

-          C+ Executives: the “Sky Tour”

Xolani Ndlovu, Territory Account Manager for Panduit in South Africa commented, “Today, it is increasingly important for organisations to have an holistic view of the data centre estate, power and equipment usage, in order to meet corporate objectives of reduced space utilisation, lower power consumption and improved latency traffic rates. At Cisco Expo this year, our new App allows us to communicate these benefits to the C-level executives, as well as the technical decision makers.”
