Xiplink announced today that Globecomm
Systems Inc. has signed a value added reseller contract for
optimization products.
The agreement follows several months of testing
at the demanding internal technology labs at Globecomm Headquarters
as well as field trials at Globecomm Europe’s Teleport. While
XipLink’s wireless link optimization technology addresses many key
markets such as military, aero broadband and telco infrastructure,
the initial deployment provides optimized Internet access for crew
welfare on maritime vessels. The combined benefit of XipLink’s
Hub Optimizations (XHO) and remote two-way wireless link
optimization drastically improves user performance with acceleration
while also reducing bandwidth costs via advanced compression
techniques.
Jack Waters, CEO of XipLink stated, “XipLink is
excited and very proud of our new commercial relationship with
Globecomm. We have always respected Globecomm’s technical
excellence and believe that our solutions will complement their
global initiatives to deliver the highest quality managed service
offerings. Our joint engineering and support teams deserve
high accolades for working closely together to deliver these
successful deployments.”
“We engaged technically with XipLink directly
after their XHO solution won the 2011 World Teleport Association
product of the year award”, said Arthur Graniela, VP of Operations.
Mr. Graniela continued “Globecomm has chosen XipLink as they have a
scalable, flexible and capital efficient array of one and two-way
optimization solutions. XipLink is the correct choice for us
and our underlying customers given the cost of satellite bandwidth
and the ever growing demand to efficiently move more and more
applications across those links.”
XipLink’s objective is to continue the strong
momentum with Globecomm with a focus on lowering the OPEX costs of
these critical networks while simultaneously increasing application
performance. Wireless link optimization includes techniques such as
TCP acceleration, data and header compression, web optimizations and
several other techniques. This stable of solutions, coupled
with application specific optimizations targeted at the requirements
of certain verticals dramatically lowers expensive satellite
bandwidth while simultaneously providing service providers a
competitive advantage.
