Cisco Systems and Westcon Group North America (formerly d.b.a. Comstor) will pay $48 million to settle claims that they knowingly provided incomplete information to the General Services Administation during Westcon’s contract negotiations with the GSA, which resulted in defective pricing of Cisco products and submission of false claims to the United States.

As part of this settlement, the federal government will dismiss a whistleblower lawsuit filed in Arkansas in 2004.
