Velocent Systems Launches 10Gbps End-to-End User Visibility Engine to Drive Its OneVu™ Network Analysis Solutions

Tripling of Throughput Enables Monitoring of 1 Million Simultaneous User Sessions, Increases Scalability for Mobile Broadband Operators

Naperville, IL – June 30, 2011 – Mobile broadband intelligence solutions provider Velocent Systems has launched LexaVu – the industry’s highest throughput end-to-end visibility engine - that monitors every user’s mobile broadband packets and generates quality of experience measurements that drive its OneVu™ suite of solutions. 

 

By surpassing the 10Gpbs threshold of continuous, real-time user plane monitoring, Velocent has evolved its architecture to keep pace with explosive growth of mobile broadband. Mobile operators continue to expand data capacity as they evolve from 2G to 3G and LTE, and intelligence solutions providers must keep pace. Velocent provides industry-leading accuracy, scalability, and speed by monitoring the mobile network at its most concentrated point via dedicated network flow processor hardware.

“Mobile operators are realizing that to understand and improve users’ quality of experience, they must evolve from the signaling plane mindset, to looking at the user plane,” says Bruce Peterson, CEO of Velocent Systems. “From a single tap, LexaVu enables operators to monitor every user’s PDP context on a GGSN, down to an extremely fine-layer of granularity, and process that in real time.”

LexaVu feeds this mobile data into its analytics and reporting system to generate business intelligence. With this intelligence about customer experience, mobile operators can improve customer care, proactively isolate network performance problems, trigger RAN-aware congestion management policies, and optimize capacity investments

LexaVu provides a number of features to enhance both scalability and measurements:

  • 10 Gpbs throughput enabling monitoring of up to 1 million simultaneous PDP contexts from a single tap
  • PCI-e board hardware for easy upgrade
  • PDP context effective throughput monitoring
