“The federal government is positioning itself as a global leader on environmental stewardship and climate change by transforming how government operates,” said Christina Condos, Vice President of Events for 1105 Government Information Group. “Green IT is going to be an essential part of that success. FOSE has always been the venue for companies to educate federal IT decision-makers about innovative products and solutions that will improve government’s efficiency and effectiveness and meet mission critical requirements. We are pleased that FOSE has the opportunity to showcase these green IT solutions to the government at this critical time.”

An example of the green technology solutions that will be displayed on the show floor include:

• Black Box Network Services will showcase a variety of products to help agencies go green. Its self-contained ClimateCab and Wallmount ClimateCab will help agencies save energy and money by cooling only the cabinet, rather than a whole room or IT center. Similarly, Black Box also will feature the Elite Managed Power Controller, a cost and energy efficient solution that allows agencies to remotely monitor, control, and report power for an agency’s network equipment
• Core Solutions, Inc. will feature WEB CARE 4.0, an Electronic Health Record System, which eliminates paper records associated with services – decreasing paper usage and storage requirements to almost zero
• e-End performs electronic recycling and secure data destruction in an environmentally friendly manner with the focus on adaptive reuse and a zero landfill policy. e-End’s services demonstrate positive environmental stewardship while reducing the carbon footprint; ninety percent of e-End’s processed materials are directed back into the manufacturing stream to become new-user products
• Gardant Global will highlight its alternative energy mobile charging capabilities for government. Gardant Solar Charging Technologies allow deployed personnel the opportunity to access and maintain unlimited power to mobile phones, cameras, and computers in areas where there may be no commercial power available
• Nortec Communications will showcase VMware’s Capacity Planner, which delivers a clear picture into agency IT resource utilization and develops a virtualization roadmap for server containment and consolidation. The Capacity Planner results in reduced energy costs by eliminating underutilization and server sprawl (without affecting applications or users), reducing the environmental impact of IT
• Sumitomo Electric Lightwave will feature its FutureFlex Air-blown Fiber System, allowing any type and count of fiber to be blown in and out of the LAN for real-time control of bandwidth. Fiber blown out can be reused or recycled in its original form, creating a continuously renewable, sustainable fiber optic infrastructure with no end to its life cycle
