SANDVINE UPGRADES FAIRSHARE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT FOR MOBILE Operators Gain Mobility-Awareness and a Dynamic Control System
Waterloo, CANADA; February 7, 2012 -Sandvine, (TSX:SVC; AIM:SAND) a leading provider of intelligent broadband network solutions today announced the launch of the latest version of Fairshare Traffic Management, a turn-key product for mobile congestion management and analytics that maximizes users' quality of experience and extends the life of network infrastructure investment. Sandvine's Fairshare Traffic Management 4.0 introduces a new dynamic control system which measures the achieved network quality and acts to maximize it.
The latest version of Fairshare Traffic Management interoperates with third-party vendors to offer "mobility- awareness". True mobility-awareness can accurately identify a moving subscriber's cell location, dynamically evaluate the congestion level of the cell and apply traffic management policies in real-time, in order to alleviate any congestion. This is the only solution that offers true mobility-awareness; competing products can identify the initial location where the mobile subscriber's device connected, but not subsequent network locations to which the subscriber has moved.
Sandvine's Fairshare Traffic Management 4.0 for mobile enables: · Sector-based congestion management based on dynamic congestion detection capabilities, superior to statically-provisioned cell capacity · Fair-use network policies to maintain the highest quality of experience during times of congestion for the maximum number of users' interactive applications · Real-time network location-based policies such as charging, advertising and communications · Support for location-based pricing for mobile data to create bundled and tiered services that match subscriber usage, dependant on the subscriber's location · Location- aware network analytics and reporting that provides visibility of the impact of congestion management policies and supports proactive network capacity planning
"Sandvine has been a leader in congestion management for the past decade. Our latest version of Fairshare Traffic Management brings a powerful and dynamic congestion control system that works in concert with our policy decision and enforcement capabilities," said Don Bowman, CTO, Sandvine. "Operators can cost-effectively manage their mobile networks to deliver optimal performance without resorting to crude approximations such as daily or hourly network-wide traffic management policies."
Sandvine's Network Policy Control is a complete system that gives mobile operators visibility of application traffic, per-subscriber usage, device identification and network congestion. This data powers the integrated policy decision and enforcement engine, enabling a myriad of solutions for service providers, such as fair-use management policies, network capacity planning, and tailored, tiered service plans. Sandvine's Fairshare Traffic Management product has been deployed in over 50 service provider networks worldwide in 2011 alone to address congestion management across all access technologies.

SANDVINE HELPS REGIONAL WIRELESS OPERATORS PROVIDE DIFFERENTIATED SERVICES Network Policy Control solutions for networks of all shapes and sizes
Waterloo, ON; January 24, 2012 -Sandvine, (TSX:SVC; AIM:SAND) a leading provider of intelligent broadband network solutions, today announced it has successfully deployed its Network Policy Control solutions in three North American wireless networks, BendBroadband, FRC/The Blue Zone and Main Street Broadband. All three operators became Sandvine customers in fiscal 2011 and provide fixed-wireless service using a variety of access technologies including WiMAX, satellite, 3G and 4G.
New service provider entrants are acutely aware of the need to differentiate their offerings from incumbents in order to gain market share, and therefore take full advantage of the benefits of Network Policy Control. These regional service providers have deployed Sandvine's Fairshare Traffic Management product to help provide quality service. This product helps manage inherent competition for limited network resources so that the best possible quality of experience is preserved for the maximum number of subscribers for the maximum amount of time.
"Sandvine was a strategic addition to our wireless network," said Eric Anderson, BendBroadband's director of wireless engineering. "The combination of the Sandvine deployment with BendBroadband's new 4G LTE network means our home Internet customers will continue to enjoy the same reliable service."

"Sandvine's Traffic Management offering is the best-of-breed solution for optimal bandwidth usage per subscriber and will give FRC/The Blue Zone the ability to differentiate itself in this highly competitive marketplace."
Sandvine has also supplied Main Street Broadband with Network Analytics as a comprehensive business intelligence tool to measure network performance and to help gain insight into network trends and subscriber usage with executive-style dashboards.
"Main Street utilizes Sandvine technology to proactively manage network traffic, ensure fair use amongst its customers and limit the impact of abusive practices," said Bud Zirkle, COO, Main Street Broadband.
"It is important to us to maintain strong relationships with our customers and advise them on the latest tools available to manage their Internet resources," said Tom Donnelly, COO, Sales and Global Services, Sandvine. "Video streaming, multimedia messaging and the explosion of video-oriented apps and services, have all had a profound effect on networks.

Monetising mobile
06/04/2011 Miles Nolan February’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona saw the annual gathering of representatives from every aspect of mobile communications – device and component manufacturers, network equipment vendors, mobile network operators (MNOs), software and content developers and service providers Unlike many events that see swathes of consumers (such as January’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas), the cost of entrance to the Mobile World Congress (MWC) means that it is heavily focused on business, and the business of the 60,000+ attendees was how to monetise mobile communications. Over the years, the scale and scope of the event has grown massively and it is now the largest mobile technology show in the world. There were more than 1,300 companies exhibiting this year and many others taking meeting rooms and hospitality suites to meet current and potential partners, customers and suppliers. The attendees span the universe of mobile communications. Handset and tablet manufacturers such as Research In Motion, Apple, HTC, Huawei, HP and Nokia had high profiles and demonstrated their latest products. Slightly off the main strip, multiple second-tier manufacturers were offering products with comparable functionality at a lower price point. As part of this, there are a number of software companies providing the necessary infrastructure software to enable MNOs or device manufacturers to offer functionality similar to an iPhone or BlackBerry (including push email, instant messaging and social networking) but on much lower-functionality devices and hence at a much lower price to the consumer. These include Synchronica (SYNC) and Globo (GBO). Synchronica, through organic growth and acquisition, has secured 82 MNOs as customers, representing an addressable market of more than 1.2 billion subscribers. It has also signed up a number of Tier 1 and Tier 2 device manufacturers as customers. With 50 services live at the end of 2010 and a further 20 or so likely to go live this half, MNOs should start to eat through initial licence sales, resulting in high-margin follow-up orders with shorter sales cycles. All present and correct There was good representation from the component and technology suppliers to the handset manufacturers – e.g. ARM (ARM) and Imagination Technologies (IMG) – plus the operating system and software providers. There was a further large hall of app developers and content providers that are looking to exploit the capabilities of these new devices. The event was partly overshadowed by two bits of news from Nokia the week before. The company has been the dominant provider of handsets, peaking at the end of 2007 with 40 per cent worldwide market share of new device shipments coupled with industry-leading operating margins (22.8 per cent). However, with the arrival of the iPhone at the top end and a slew of cheaper phones at the bottom end and Android-based phones across the range, Nokia’s market share and margins have been squeezed and Nokia’s response to date has been slow. Catch-22 situation On the Tuesday before the event, an internal email from Nokia CEO Stephen Elop was leaked that set out in stark detail the scale of the problem faced by his company. He likened Nokia’s situation to a man standing on a burning North Sea oil platform – either he burns alive or he jumps into the icy waters beneath. Elop conceded that Apple now owns the high-end smartphone range and that Google has created a platform in Android that attracts application developers, service providers and hardware manufacturers. Having started at the high end, Android has successfully expanded to the mid-range and is expanding into the sub e100 market. Android was heavily represented at the show, with more than 80 booths with Android devices, more than 160 Android products and a dedicated ‘Android-Land’. At the low end, a raft of manufacturers in the Shenzhen region of China are produci |

Bardfield, see below response from Caaching (last year), when I questioned share movement on extremely small volumes:
"Wee Davie, go to www.stockhouse.ca for T.SVC on the Toronto Stock Exchange. This is where the action is for this stock as it is a Canadian company. 1.2 million shares traded on Friday. It's also much easier and quicker to register yourself as a poster than this crazy website. 1.2 million shares traded on Friday." |
