FibreCAT TX10 PacketLoader

[gressoney2000]

I am searching for a FibreCAT TX10 PacketLoader, but it is not available in Italy. There is someone who knows why? In German it is available, in the fujitsu-siemens online shop too (http://www.fujitsu-siemens-shop.de).
thanks

Hello Helga,
FSC representative tells me that the only product available in Italy is the FibreCAT TX24 that costs approximately € 6.500(!) ... I think that, if it is the only entry level product (!), Fujitsu-Siemens is really out of the market in Italy. It is possible that other brands have similar products (with 8/10 slots) for € 3.500/4.500 and we cannot be competitive with Fujitsu-Siemens?
It should be possible, eventually, import directly from German the FibreCAT TX10 PacketLoader? Otherwise it is possible to know if Fujitsu-Siemens intends to bring out another product more competitive in the next future?
Thanks Roby

Hello,
sorry, it is not possible to import the TX10 from Germany, because of service and warranty issues.
The data will grow all year. Therefore the entry configuration of the FibreCAT TX24 (D:TX24-S12-L2H) with 1LTO-2 drive and 12slots, 5500€ listprice) is the best alternative. With TX24 you can grow up to 24 slots and 9.6TB native,LTO-3. With this product you have a very high investment protection.
