Expand Networks, a major supplier of WAN Optimization products to US Government and Military agencies and satellite service providers, will demonstrate its latest innovations in acceleration techniques. These techniques further enhance the user experience in satellite networks across the most challenging military, government, enterprise, rural and remote environments at Satellite 2011. Expand Networks will be demonstrating its Virtual Accelerator at Satellite 2011, from March 15th-17th at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center.
Expand will demonstrate how satellite service providers can lower operating costs while improving the use of broadband in unserved and under-served rural markets to enable distance learning, telemedicine, public safety, emergency response and economic development. With Expand’s latest AOS – 7.0.1 – satellite can deliver virtual broadband anywhere.
Expand Networks has longstanding and widespread experience in enhancing satellite communications. The AOS 7.0.1 builds on Expand’s unique capabilities in providing this effective WAN optimization for high latency, satellite environments. Through live demonstrations and active discussions, visitors to the stand can discover how any why clients military, law enforcement, emergency response, humanitarian assistance organizations use Expand’s technology to enhance satellite communications across the harshest operating environments.
Howard Teicher, Vice President for Public Sector & Satellite Markets explains, “Operating enterprise-class applications over low bandwidth-high latency satellite links demands a dynamic, robust WAN Optimization capability to satisfy all network performance requirements. Expand Networks Accelerators, which are battle-proven in Iraq and Afghanistan with US and NATO forces, enable fast and reliable connectivity to offer increased levels of quality of service by way of higher bandwidth throughput, reduced latency, and seamless delivery of critical applications.”
Combining SCPS (Space Communication Protocol Standard) technology with compression, byte-level caching and layer 7 QoS, Expand’s protocol agnostic approach to optimization accelerates all critical productivity tools and business applications across satellite environments.
Teicher concludes, “With the industry’s best performance over satellite, and dynamic, robust WAN optimization capability, Expand is best-placed to help organizations overcome the traditional low bandwidth, high latency obstacles that impede the speed and performance of applications and services over satellite networks today. Our proven combination of byte-level caching, efficient compression and TCP acceleration turns the potential risk of slow, unsecure satellite links, into a robust communications asset that can support even the most demanding of users in the environments.”
