C-COR Unlocks Bandwidth with New Integrated Solution; Bandwidth QoS Product Mitigates Peer-to-Peer Traffic Jams.STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- C-COR Incorporated (Nasdaq:CCBL CCBL Crescent Commercial Bank Limited (Pakistan) CCBL Cambodia Campaign to Ban Landmines CCBL Configuration Control Baseline CCBL CPEDB Configuration Baseline Listing CCBL Chinese Christian Basketball League ) today announced its Bandwidth Quality of Service (QoS) Network Appliance (1) A specialized device for use on a network. For example, Web servers, cache servers and file servers can be implemented as general-purpose computers with the appropriate software or as network appliances, which are computers dedicated to a single function and cannot do anything solution aimed at unleashing network service providers' bandwidth capabilities. The bandwidth optimization and congestion control
Congestion control concerns controlling traffic entry into a telecommunications network, so as to avoid congestive collapse by attempting to avoid solution combines the ability to pinpoint and prioritize bandwidth power users on the DOCSIS (Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification) A cable modem standard from the CableLabs research consortium (www.cablelabs.com), which provides equipment certification for interoperability. (R) network with dynamic on demand bandwidth management Controlling the traffic flow in a network. See bandwidth manager. . C-COR is the global provider of transport solutions, network intelligence, on demand, and operations management for IP networks. The C-COR Bandwidth QoS Network Appliance marries the feature sets of C-COR's CableEdge(R) and Policy Service Manager (PSM PSM PlayStation Magazine PSM Process Safety Management (chemical industry) PSM Porsche Stability Management PSM Platform-Specific Model(s) PSM Platform Support Module PSM Professional Science Master's (TM)) to give operators a way to ensure fair-share of high-speed data bandwidth among subscribers despite rapid rises in traffic levels and network congestion. The solution levels the distribution of bandwidth demands on the network and guarantees that bandwidth is distributed fairly across broadband subscribers. At the onset of rapid rises in traffic levels and network congestion, the application sends an alert to the Policy Service Manager to implement a fairness policy, optimizing network performance to avoid slowdowns to high-speed data users and prioritizing applications such as VoIP. "Today, with 80 percent of bandwidth being consumed by 10 percent of broadband subscribers and with broadband intensive applications poised to skyrocket, we've come to a point where it is no longer enough to simply add raw bandwidth," said Michael Pohl, president, Global Strategies Group, C-COR. "Bandwidth QoS expands network capacity and helps operators achieve higher network utilization without congestion The condition of a network when there is not enough bandwidth to support the current traffic load. congestion - When the offered load of a data communication path exceeds the capacity. or even touching the majority of their network." More than 5,000 MSO (1) (Multiple System Operator) Typically refers to a cable TV organization that owns more than one cable system, but it may refer to an operator of only one system. employees rely on the C-COR CableEdge(R) Assurance software to manage 10 million DOCSIS devices throughout 12 countries. C-COR's Policy Service Manager provides dynamic network capacity for multimedia applications to ensure plentiful bandwidth for value-added applications and provides application management and service level control. The Bandwidth QoS solution combines these capabilities to bring a new level of intelligence to managing bandwidth that: --Finds and manages power users; --Prioritizes congested con·gest·ed adj.
