Allot Networks Solutions: Internet Service Providers
Broadband Traffic Management Solutions for Intelligent NetworksThe rise of applications such as VoIP, interactive gaming, and streaming video are changing the nature of broadband services, forcing DSL carriers and Internet Service Providers (ISP) to move from marketing broadband simply as a faster Internet connection to promoting broadband as the key enabler of value added services, applications, content and the digital home. As broadband moves into this phase of market development, carriers and internet service providers face unprecedented challenges.
Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) has a vital role to play in next-generation broadband networks, and Allot is paving the way with a carrier-grade solution that overcomes the barriers of performance, reliability, application awareness and subscriber awareness that have made it difficult for service providers to control capital and operating costs. In addition, Allot ISP solutions leverage DPI as an enabler of value added services vital to maintaining differentiation and profitability in broadband networks. Only Allot combines a powerful DPI engine with an array of services to provide a fully integrated, carrier-class platform that is capable of identifying the traffic flows of individual subscribers and directing them to the value added services to which they have subscribed.
