Solution Summary

Opteq with Singular-iQ delivers fast, secure networking to users wherever they are, while controlling ever rising network and network management costs. Opteq Appliances optimize and secure the flow of information to any user, on any network, anywhere. Opteq systems run any combination of:

Opteq Appliances (Platforms/Base Units) scale from Branch Office/SME Office, through Enterprise Data Centre to Telco class solutions in any network topology including 10Gbps fiber. Unlike the alternatives all Opteq solutions can be combined within one appliance. Solutions vary from one appliance in the core of a network for most WAN optimization solutions, to one appliance per site and to software end-point solutions. This is all made possible through Singular-iQ, Opteq’s robust high-performance networking technology that enables its appliances to offer integrated functionality with unparalleled performance. All Opteq appliances use the latest hardware platforms and Intel’s ‘Core’ microprocessors with Smart Cache, Turbo Boost and Hyper Threading technology.

Network Visibility

Network Visibility is Opteq’s powerful layer 7 ‘deep-packet-inspection’ network monitoring, reporting and network traffic analysis solution. With granular application visibility you can rapidly pinpoint business-critical content, recreational traffic such as iTunes, YouTube and IM and malware, and correct miss-configurations, congestion and bottlenecks. See Real time iQ

Qos/Traffic-shaping

Qos/Traffic-shaping is Opteq’s scalable, carrier-grade application-control solution. Applications are prioritized, controlled and optimized from a single device in the network. ISPs can simply configure quota management (FUP) and maximize use of their carrier networks. Integration with existing subscriber management and billing systems is facilitated via comprehensive API and ODBC data access. See bandwidth iQ Solution Summary / Bandwidth iQ / Subscriber Management / ISP traffic shaping

Wan Optimization

Wan Optimization is Opteq’s integrated visibility, control and acceleration solution. Applications accessed by distributed enterprise users are accelerated via eliminating redundant transmissions, storing data in local caches, compressing and prioritizing data, accelerating TCP and streamlining chatty protocols. The WAN Optimization solution includes all the benefits of the Qos/Traffic Shaping solution and Network Visibility. Wan Optimisation / Faster Wan in 3 Easy Steps /

Web Cache

Web Cache is Opteq’s robust, scalable and easy to use cache solution. Cached content is delivered immediately from local storage and, rather than upgrading, available bandwidth is fully used for other business services such as VOIP and video conferencing. The Web Cache may be configured in-line as a transparent cache and any load accommodated via clustered caches. (WCCP and AD support). Enterprises benefit from web-applications running in ‘real-time’ and ISPs can manage dramatic increases in network traffic and subscriber growth.

Application Delivery

Application Delivery is Opteq’s server acceleration/load balancing solution (“AD”). Server acceleration maximizes performance and minimizes latency of Web servers, the WAN and browsers. AD’s web-server offload, high-performance content compression and content-aware traffic management technologies decrease page download times and reduce bandwidth usage. AD increases the lifespan and performance of servers by facilitating clustering to increase load handling and provide comprehensive flexible health monitoring and failover. All serve to increase user productivity.

Secure Gateway

Secure Gateway is Opteq’s secure web and/or email Gateway solution (“SG”). SG traps all malware including viruses, worms, spyware, Trojans and spam that can otherwise harm your business. SG can be a nominated or inline Web proxy/cache/email GW. Web access is filtered and/or blocked according to policy templates and content profiles that are updated continually. Similarly eMail can be stripped of viruses, spam, etc. according to content profiles that are updated by subscription. SG may include an advanced easy-to-manage, enterprise-grade firewall. Combined with bandwidth manager this is the most advanced feature-rich layer 7 firewall with the highest throughput and lowest latency available today.See Enterprise Gateway See Web iQ

Opteq ProxyClient

Opteq ProxyClient is Opteq’s solution for remote SOHO and mobile users. Running on the customers computer(s) ProxyClient is a free-of-charge fully secured, optimized, compressed and encrypted SSL VPN tunnel that terminates on the HO Opteq office device.

CMS

CMS is Opteq’s central management and reporting console, allowing management of multi-unit Opteq deployments with comprehensive control, centralized configuration management, software distribution, centralized monitoring and report consolidation from all field units.

Singular-iQ

Singular-iQ forms the core of all its appliances including Opteq’s fully hardened operating system optimized around the latest multi-threaded, multi-core Intel chip sets right down to device drivers. Singular-iQ provides unified management and reporting of all licensed functional modules and allows reports to be formatted, scheduled and automatically emailed in a rich variety of ways.
