Global Caché Signs
New Distributor Unipalm
Unipalm,
a COMPUTERLINKS Company, to Distribute Global Caché Products
in the UK and Ireland
Jacksonville, OR USA - February 7, 2006 -
Global Caché,
the award winning provider of IP-enabling products for homes and
businesses, announced today it has signed IP-based solution provider,
Unipalm, to sell and support Global Caché products in the
United Kingdom and Ireland.
Global Caché’s flagship product, the GC-100 Network
Adapter, is designed to IP-enable devices and appliances that otherwise
could not be connected to a network, bringing Ethernet connectivity
to infrared (IR) devices, serial (RS232) devices, and relay switches
(contact closure), allowing them to be controlled using IP-based
software. Global Caché also supplies IR learning devices,
IR receivers, and sensors for use over networks.
Unipalm, a COMPUTERLINKS company, is the UK and Ireland's foremost
specialist distributor of Internet technology solutions. For channel
partners implementing intelligent network environments and integrated,
scalable security systems, Unipalm offers a single point of expertise
and assistance. Unipalm operates through a network of reseller partners,

hardware and software manufacturers. Utilizing over 15 years experience

package of technical, sales and marketing support, practical training

COMPUTERLINKS is the largest European value added distributor for
resellers wishing to partner with market-leading international manufacturers.
In mainland Europe COMPUTERLINKS markets in Austria, France, Germany,
Hungary, Italy and Switzerland, and, through the recent acquisition
of Securesoft, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. COMPUTERLINKS
also has a presence in North America.
“Partnering with Unipalm to represent us in the UK and Ireland
is an important event for us,” said Robin Ford, Global Caché VP
of Business Development. “Unipalm has the channel commitment,
the reach, and the support structure to take us the next step in
penetrating the business and residential markets that we both serve.
The fact that they are owned by COMPUTERLINKS offers even more opportunities
for growth into the rest of the European market. Europe is an important
market to us and we are very excited to be aligning ourselves with
the leading distributor of IP based solutions in their market. This
is a really good development for us and our international customers.”
John Turner, Head of Multi Media Networking for Unipalm concurred,
saying, “We believe that Global Caché’s line of
IP-enabling products is going to be an important part of our IP-enabling
offering. Their ability to connect previously isolated devices like
DVD players to a network is a huge bonus for our Automation and Control
solutions aimed at both business and residential markets. The simplicity,
and flexible design of the GC-100 Network Adapter, as well as the
very competitive pricing, is going to be incredibly attractive to
our channel.”
