Sambal boosts data speeds through TCP/IP optimization

 

Zurich, Switzerland July 8 2014 – Leading French network operator, Free Mobile, has deployed Sambal® from Teclo Networks, the leader in TCP/IP data optimization, to deliver lightning fast mobile internet to subscribers across the network.

 

Sambal’s TCP/IP optimization has been deployed in Free Mobile’s network following an extremely successful one month trial. Sambal achieved highly impressive optimization results, with faultless stability, which led Free Mobile to select the solution.

 

Free is one of the world’s most innovative mobile operators offering highly competitive price plans to over 8.6 million mobile subscribers.

 

Thomas Reynaud, Free’s Chief Financial Officer and Head of Business Development “We considered a number of options to strengthen our mobile Internet speeds and Teclo Networks exceeded our expectations. Our decision-making process based on actual testing was fast and efficient thanks to the quality of this very well designed solution. Throughput improvements on all network technologies, especially 3G and 4G are truly impressive. The product is perfectly stable and reliable.”

 

TCP/IP, the basic communications protocol of the internet, was traditionally built for fixed-lines. Therefore, the rate in which data is transferred over mobile networks can be slow. Sambal uses TCP/IP acceleration to reduce the negative effects of packet loss and latency on mobile networks.

 

Sambal manages and optimizes data transferred through TCP/IP without caching. Put simply, Sambal brings the consistency of fixed line Internet to mobile networks. Sambal also has optional compression features. It can work in two modes: transparent, with no content change and non-transparent, with slight image degradation to make mobile web pages download faster.

 

“We understand that mobile operators are under pressure to deliver reliable, fast mobile Internet speeds to their subscribers,” said Jane Walerud, CEO of Teclo Networks. “A reliable and robust mobile Internet service equals happy customers. And Sambal has an amazing track record of delivering an outstanding service. We are delighted to have been selected by Free Mobile and Sambal will continue to deliver impressive results now – and in the future”.
