Cable Industry Expands, Needs NetEqualizer
Posted on August 09, 2006 at 10:52 AM EDT

LAFAYETTE, Colo., Aug. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- The cable industry has been morphing and growing lately and as they move more into providing network services, they find need for NetEqualizer. Cable operators have begun to offer not just television, but VoIP and high-speed Internet. NetEqualizer, a bandwidth shaping appliance, has been serving ISPs as well as schools, universities, large businesses, business suites and hotels for several years. Now a new vertical is opening up for bandwidth shaping technologies and NetEqualizer may be the best suited for the cable industry.

Wood Lake Cable, Ltd. provides cable television, digital cable, high-speed cable Internet, web hosting and netcall digital telephone in Winfield, BC, Canada.

"We looked at several products of this type, most were well over 20K and very complicated. NetEqualizer was affordable, easy to set up/manage and has delivered excellent results. Payback was only a few months," says Darren Muloin of Wood Lake Cable. Before NetEqualizer, file sharing was clogging their network.

Cable TV of Belzoni in Mississippi offers more services than just television; they've expanded into providing Internet service.

When their network slowed, they put in a NetEqualizer.

"I have been very impressed with its operation and it works really well at slowing down the bandwidth hogs," says Les Vance of Cable TV of Belzoni. "It has helped me tremendously because I run this network remotely. I have not had a full bandwidth meltdown since I installed the equalizer. There are many things that I like about the equalizer and it is a great product."

Cable companies are a natural client for NetEqualizer because they are not in the business of networks. NetEqualizer is a quick and sustainable fix for a company that has other work to get done.

The NetEqualizer is a plug-and-play bandwidth control appliance that is flexible and scalable. When the network is congested, NetEqualizer's unique "behavior shaping" technology gives priority to latency-sensitive applications, such as VoIP and email. It does it all dynamically and automatically improving on other bandwidth shaping technology out there. It controls network flow for the best WAN Optimization.
