Accelerating Satellite WANs with Riverbed

Overview Are satellite connections making collaboration across your WAN nearly impossible? That's no surprise, given the high latency and low bandwidth that is endemic to satellite links. Application performance is often very poor, challenging teams around the globe. This solutions brief explains how using wide-area data services (WDS) can enable more robust, LAN-like performance over satelÂ¬lite connections with out-of-the-box compatibility that accelerates the broadest range of applications remote workers need to function efÂ¬fectively over the WAN.

What are IP VPNs good for?

While acknowledging IPSec's role in supporting users at satellite offices, BT's Logan says the bulk of big corporate network users are plumping for an MPLS IP VPN, perhaps because it handles voice so well thanks to its prioritisation capabilities.

Analysis: Think tanks fill up on broadband

Always-on (and low connection latency) is probably more important than bandwidth. With good DVRs, which the satellite distributors are now pushing, a single broadcast of a film can be used, with customers loading it off the disk at their convenience.

Broadband growth fastest in Eastern Europe

Point Topic analyst Vince Chook said the increasing demand for bandwidth means that fibre connections are becoming increasingly popular and competitive with copper connections. S is for Satellite phones
