Business Wire, Dec 17, 1998

COLUMBUS, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 17, 1998--Computer Telephony has cited Liebert's Little Glass House(R) as "Product of the Year" in its current (December) issue.

The magazine describes the system as "an instant equipment war room on wheels" designed to keep mission-critical high-tech gear protected in a lockable enclosure. CT editors also highly recommend the optional Liebert SiteNet SNMP Integrator and SiteNet communications software package that allows the system to check conditions and initiate pre-set actions when problems arise.

In the October issue of CT, the Little Glass House was granted "Editor's Choice" award status and won praise as a "luxury that solves real high-tech dilemmas." Based on the publication's own in-house tests, CT editors labeled the Little Glass House as "an extraordinarily impressive piece of American manufacturing that maximizes cooling efficiency and provides top-of-the-line UPS while monitoring environmental conditions 24/7."

Summing up the system's award-winning performance characteristics, CT editors note that the Little Glass House is "a total package for cooling, power and security problems for critical equipment while Liebert offers on-line technical phone assistance and on-site maintenance or repair service."
