HOD HASHARON, Israel,
June 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Allot Communications Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALLT), a leading provider of
service optimization and revenue generation solutions for fixed and
mobile data networks worldwide, today announced that Three UK has
deployed Ortiva Wireless' unique iVOG (internet Video Optimization
Gateway) platform to help optimize Three UK network costs and
provide the necessary level of quality for subscribers. By
reducing the stalls, or buffering, that can be encountered by
people watching video over mobile networks, Three UK's customers
will receive a superior video experience.
Mobile video use continues to grow at a rapid rate, especially
for mobile carriers that have to manage the bandwidth-intensive
traffic. As more consumers and businesses rely on data cards,
tablets, and high-end smartphones, the ability to cost-effectively
deliver high-quality mobile video services is high on the list of
challenges confronting mobile carriers worldwide.
According to Allot MobileTrends Reports H2/21022, video now
represents over 40 percent of the total traffic on mobile networks.
That number is expected to continue to rise.
The Ortiva iVOG platform allows service providers to
dramatically improve the quality and efficiency of rich media
content delivery by optimizing for real-time network conditions and
for each mobile connection. It improves the user experience by
decreasing stalls, providing the optimal quality of service through
inline transrating based on actual network speeds and content
types. This allows for a more efficient allotment of bandwidth, so
customers can watch more video on their data plans. The
ability to do this without transcoding creates a highly scalable
solution.
"Three selected the Ortiva iVOG platform after a detailed RFP,
lab and field trial process," said Phil
Sheppard, Director of Network Strategy at Three UK.
"Ortiva's scalability advantages allowed the deployment to be paid
for entirely by the savings in network expansion costs, while at
the same time improving the subscriber quality of experience even
under challenging network conditions."
"The explosion in mobile video use requires a solution
that can quickly solve the issue of broadly managing video content
across entire networks, do it quickly, and at a cost carriers and
infrastructure companies find affordable," said Rami Hadar, Allot's President and CEO.
"Ortiva Wireless' proactive approach to providing a scalable
platform is a winning solution for operators and their customers
too."
