Introducing PanView iQ ™
PANVIEW iQ™ (PViQ™) is an exciting new next-generation
Physical Infrastructure Intelligence solution that has been
developed from the ground up by PANDUIT.
Physical Infrastructure Manager (PIM) software provides
the management interface to PViQ™ . PIM will be available
on 3/20; global availability is scheduled for 4/4
Our existing PANVIEW™ system will continue to be offered
through 2008 (longer if justified by open quotes, bids, etc).
PANDUIT will support PanView through 2012.
PanView and PViQ™ are not interchangeable. There are no
means to convert PanView systems to PViQ™.
