Sandvine Expands Customer Footprint in Canada and Latin America

Sandvine Expands Customer Footprint in Canada and Latin America

WATERLOO, Canada, June 15/PRNewswire/ --

- Seaside Communications and TV Cable Select Sandvine Network
Demographics Management

Sandvine Incorporated, world leader in intelligent broadband management
solutions, announced today the addition of two new cable customers. Seaside
Communications, leader in emerging technologies and cable Internet
applications on Canada's east coast, and TV Cable, the largest broadband
provider in Ecuador, have selected Sandvine's Network Demographics Management
to monitor and protect subscribers and applications.

Sandvine's award-winning solutions empower broadband service providers
with tools to understand subscriber behaviour, protect valuable applications
such as VoIP and gaming from malicious attacks (worms, spam trojan, DoS, and
DNS attack traffic), differentiate services, and ensure subscriber quality of
experience (QoE).

As service providers grow their networks and offer differentiated IP
services, cable operators such as Seaside and TV Cable need visibility into
their traffic to maximize network resources for subscribers and their
applications.

"As we add more subscribers to our network who make greater demands for
new applications, we need to accommodate by offering the best possible online
experience," said Shane Ferguson, Director of Network of Operations, Seaside
Communications. "We chose Sandvine's intelligent broadband management
solution so we can ensure subscribers continue to experience high quality of
service on their most valued applications."

"TV Cable prides itself on offering the best quality of service to its
cable customers," said Derek Caney, Chief Technology Officer, TV Cable.
"Sandvine's tools help us understand our subscribers' online behaviour so we
can ensure that we continue offering them the applications that they want at
the quality they have come to expect."

"With increased competition for differentiated services, it's no longer
enough to offer basic Internet access; service providers need to ensure their
subscribers' overall quality of experience," said Tom Donnelly, executive
vice president, marketing and sales, Sandvine Incorporated. "Sandvine
empowers service providers with tools to understand, package and manage their
services and their subscribers experience."
