With the convergence of voice, data and video over satellite becoming more common; networks becoming more fragmented and spread over larger geographical areas; and the need to shift large amounts of data from place to place growing rapidly; some organizations are encountering performance limitations. At the forefront of the challenge is user experience coupled against the cost of running and maintaining the link. Users need more access to remote data, and if user experience degrades, users are less likely to use remote services. Historically, administrators have no choice but to throw more money at the problem, either through more bandwidth or very expensive, high-end technology that provides value over long payback periods.

The turboIP-G2 Performance Enhancement Proxy is designed to tackle these intricate wide area network (WAN) complications. The turboIP-G2 is designed with the most effective WAN optimization features, targeted specifically for the unique challenges of satellite communication. Most notably, acceleration and caching are used to improve network responsiveness, keeping user experience optimized. In addition, advanced compression techniques are used to minimize data traversing the satellite link, allowing the reduction of monthly WAN bills or avoiding the purchase of additional bandwidth. Finally, the turboIP-G2 is priced well below other vendors’ offerings because the turboIP-G2 concentrates on the features that provide the biggest return on investment, and is not riddled with over designed and complicated-to-configure features. Simple, to the point, and priced to provide high value for the money invested, the moment it is turned on.

The charts below illustrate the advantage of using turboIP-G2 in a real network, with advanced WAN optimization features. The first chart illustrates a doubling effect of the effective throughput. With this type of gain, an operator can delay upgrading equipment and/or buying additional satellite bandwidth, which translates into operator cost savings. The second chart illustrates end user experience gains, as transfer times are greatly reduced and iterative fetch times are decreased, which translates to increased user experience.
