New "Energize" Partner Program Offers Comprehensive Incentives, Tools and Support for Channel Partners


COSTA MESA, CA--(Marketwire - July 10, 2007) - MGE Office Protection Systems (www.mgeops.com) -- a world leader in providing end-to-end power protection systems for today's power-hungry computing, IT and industrial environments, today announced the introduction of its comprehensive Energize Partner Program that is designed to provide computer and IT resellers with one of the most robust programs on the market today for reselling and integrating MGE Office Protection Systems' unmatched 0-20 kVA surge suppression, desktop, rack and scalable IT power protection solutions.

This new program will broaden distribution channels for MGE's growing line of intelligent power solutions for today's data centers, telecommunication systems, enterprise and IT networks as well as growing SoHo applications. Through the Energize program, resellers and system integrators will now have a complete set of tools to be able to recommend the industry's most intelligent and award-winning power protection solutions for their customer's individual needs.

"Our channel partners are critical to our business success," said Cutiz Gangi, vice president of North and South America for MGE Office Protection Systems. "We value those partners who have helped us grow into a trusted brand for application and data protection and are excited to strengthen our support for these partners as well as welcome those who will be joining us. This is an exciting time for resellers and integrators of power solutions as the opportunities, especially at the enterprise IT level, are growing rapidly as new technologies are integrated -- such as blade servers and VoIP -- that demand greater levels of protection and higher-levels of uptime and availability. Our products have many unique selling features that provide resellers with very competitive, yet state-of-the-art solutions that maximize margins. For example, our just introduced Pulsar MX Frame system gives resellers the opportunity to provide their customers with a very affordable yet easily scalable UPS system -- up to 20kVA -- that is one of the most robust yet cost-effective scalable systems on the market today."
