Demand continues for Sandvine's Network Analytics solution

WATERLOO, ON, Feb. 7, 2012 /CNW/ - Sandvine, (TSX:SVC) (AIM:SAND) a leading provider of intelligent broadband network solutions for fixed and mobile operators, today announced that it has won five new broadband service provider customers, including two that purchased Sandvine's market-leading Network Analytics product.

"Sandvine's Network Analytics is a powerful enabler for our customers, who want to leverage the kind of business level insight that standard reporting tools don't provide," said Tom Donnelly, Sandvine's COO Global Sales and Service. "Network Analytics allows operators to use real-time information to create differentiated service offerings that satisfy rapidly evolving consumer demands.  Innovative service offerings allow operators to ensure efficient utilization of network resources while giving consumers the opportunity to tailor plans to match their Internet usage, whether for real-time streaming media, gaming or social networking, for example."

The new customer orders reflect the breadth of Sandvine's network policy control capabilities and include:

• Usage Management, to help service providers move from all-you-can-eat data plans to consumption-based service tiers;
• Traffic Management, to allocate network resources fairly and efficiently during times of network congestion;
• Application-specific Traffic Divert to third-party optimization solutions, including video optimization and content caching.
