Operator purchases OutReach, Sandvine's 100GE PTS 32000 series platform

 

WATERLOO, ON, Nov. 2, 2016  - Sandvine, (TSX:SVC.TO- News) a leading provider of intelligent broadband network solutions for fixed and mobile operators, today announced that it has received orders totaling over $6 million from a converged fixed/mobile communications service provider (CSP) headquartered in Sandvine's EMEA sales region.

 

The orders represent an expansion of Sandvine's existing deployment, and include Sandvine's PTS 32000 series platform and licenses for OutReach, Sandvine's product for creating compelling subscriber engagement campaigns across multiple channels. The platform will also support some existing use cases at the customer to manage traffic for an improved subscriber experience, support charging plans and enhance network security. Underlying all of Sandvine's deployments is best-in-class traffic classification that gives CSP's unparalleled understanding of the characteristics of network traffic.

"As the upgrade cycle to 100GE continues through its early stages, we're very pleased that the PTS 32000 remains the most proven and highest performance option in the market," said Tom Donnelly, Sandvine's COO, Sales and Global Services. "Sandvine's vision with OutReach is resonating well with customers. It lets CSPs rapidly implement and manage a wide variety of valuable subscriber engagement use cases so that the right message reaches the right user at the right time, on the most effective digital channel."

 

In its 2 rack unit (RU) form factor, Sandvine's PTS 32000 delivers PCEF/TDF functionality for both mobile and fixed operators at the highest scale, with the best performance density (Gbps/RU) and performance efficiency (Mbps/watt) of any 100GE network policy control device.
