Stampede FX Series Product Line Update
Value Proposition
“Reduce OPEX, Improve User Experience”
Reduce OPEX by:
Shrinking the Data
Keeping the Pipe Full
Improve User Experience by:
Getting the Data there faster
Getting the Right Data there
The Challenges for ISPs with Satellite Links
Data consumed by individual users and enterprises is increasing exponentially. ISPs must cost-effectively
keep up with the enormous demand for limited bandwidth - while conserving it.
Assuring Delivery of Web Applications for Bottom Line Results
Data center simplification and the growing
migration to web-enabled applications are driving
the need for a new class of multi-function
optimization devices. The Stampede FX Series
combines both one-sided application delivery and
two-sided WAN optimization into a single
platform. The FX Series delivers unprecedented
application performance, optimization,
transparency, availability and management for
existing networks.
Header Compression/Packet Aggregation
As real-time traffic moves to IP, there is a
proliferation of traffic with small payloads. In this
case, the header bytes can be 2 to 4 times the
number of payload bytes. For small voice packets,
compression can result in reducing the required
data rate to 30 – 50% of the original. The FX will
compress headers, and optionally compress
payloads. The FX aggregates compressed packets
into an Ethernet frame and sends it to a peer,
where the packets are restored. Header
compression is integrated into the traffic shaping,
and maximum latency per queue can be enforced
when aggregating packets
