AxizWorkgroup will distribute Tripp Lite's full range of datacentre infrastructure, power-management and connectivity solutions. Tripp Lite prides itself on its highly efficient and reliable products that promote cost savings and limited equipment downtime. After initially establishing itself as a top-tier producer of Uninterruptible-Power-Supplies and going on to perfect them, Tripp Lite has expanded its product lines from primarily power-management to include every aspect of a datacentre manager's concern as well as digital signage and display solutions. The partnership with AxizWorkgroup will help bring Tripp Lite's 92 years of experience to the doorsteps of Southern African consumers.

Darwin Haines, vice president of Tripp Lite EMEA and Asia is quoted as saying: "We are very excited to establish ourselves even more deeply into the Southern African market as an AxizWorkgroup vendor. Our presence in Southern Africa has grown rapidly and we look forward to incorporating our wide-range of reliable products into network managers' rooms and datacentres throughout all Southern African countries."

"Tripp Lite has incredible potential for growth as our product lines are applicable both in higher-end full datacentre environments as well as in small-medium business environments with individual entrepreneurs or consumers' workstations at home. We see ourselves as the go-to source for IT solutions in almost all capacities," Haines elaborates.

"We are excited to onboard a leader within the datacentre field and we look forward to being able to bring their world-class solutions to the African market," says Andrew Moodley, executive: Security and Services at AxizWorkgroup. "The partnership between AxizWorkgroup and Tripp Lite will enable our African partners of all sizes, big or small, to enjoy leading datacentre solutions," continues Moodley.
