Commenting on the new agreement, Andrew Mulholland, Business Solutions Manager at D-Link UK & Ireland, said: "We are pleased to be back working with Computer 2000. We have worked well with each other in the past and now is the ideal time for us to re-engage. The addition of Computer 2000 as a distributor is further evidence of D-Link's ongoing commitment to the channel in the UK and builds on the recent launch of our Value in Partnership+ programme."

"Over the last few years, we have expanded our Business Solutions product portfolio considerably, with the launch of new switching, storage and IP surveillance products. In addition, we have successfully launched devices such as the Boxee Box to the consumer market. We are one of the only vendors who can offer such a breadth of networking products to resellers. By partnering with Computer 2000 we now have new routes to business and consumer markets meaning we can target even more reseller partners."
