MGE ties up with Aftek US Subsidiary for marketing Powersafe

MUMBAI, November 6, 2003:

MGE UPS SYSTEMS INC., leaders in providing unsurpassed power protection solutions to computer data centers, telecommunications and industrial operations, has tied up with Aftek Limited's 100% owned American subsidiary, Opdex Inc to offer Powersafe(TM), an enterprise-class power management solution.

'Our thrust in recent months has been to boost our products business by ramping up our US operations. This tie up between Opdex and MGE UPS Systems will go a long way in establishing Powersafe as a leading software solution in the enterprise wide infrastructure management space,' said Mr.Ranjit Dhuru, Chairman of Aftek Limited.

'MGE saw a need in the marketplace to provide our customers with the same level of advanced technology in their enterprise power management solution set as we currently offer in our leading-edge UPS products. For too long, IT managers have had to cobble together third party, non-integrated software to manage and control their complete UPS and power infrastructure. Now, through the MGE-OPDEX relationship we are able to offer a software solution that fully integrates with the enterprise system, running completely within the existing console, and providing real-time asset management for MGE hardware as well as most legacy UPS systems that may be deployed on the users' campus. By incorporating seamless integration along with unique features such as automated testing and customized actions within the enterprise management framework, this level of pro-active UPS management secures and protects corporate data assets throughout even the most extensive local or wide area network,' explains MGE's director of marketing, Jack Pouchet.

Powersafe, Aftek's flagship product, enables users to increase the availability and uptime of mission-critical systems by providing pro-active management capabilities for all uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs) throughout the enterprise directly from their existing CA Unicenter or HP OpenView consoles or in stand-alone mode.

MGE UPS SYSTEMS (Global Sales turnover 2002: 568 million Euros),France, is a world leader in providing high quality power solutions that increase power availability and system uptime to PCs and enterprise-wide networks, mission -critical telecommunication systems, and industrial/manufacturing processes.
