Control Bandwidth Costs and Ensure Fair Use
Universities are at the leading edge of an explosion in broadband supply and demand, which has driven many of these institutions to stay ahead of potential traffic jams by investing in pricey broadband infrastructure. In part, campus bandwidth demand is driven by music and movie downloads and other recreational use.
In addition, one of the highest bandwidth-usage activities on campus is faculty research which typically involves large data sets, data visualizations and other applications. Moreover, many universities support Internet access satellite campuses; to alumni and to others beyond the bricks and mortar of the university.
As your institution strives to keep pace with increasing demand and an ever-growing number of applications, Allot education network solutions help you control costs while enhancing the user experience and network performance.
