EMC gear passes test of extremes

Storage technology company EMC said Monday its Clariion CX series of networked storage platforms earned a badge of hardiness by receiving Network Equipment Building System (NEBS) Level 3 certification.

The NEBS certification is a standard developed by the telecommunications industry that shows gear can withstand extreme environmental conditions. With this certification, EMC said customers can now launch automated networked storage products that comply with the strictest requirements and specifications set by telecommunication providers.
