Effnet licenses its header compression technology for WAN optimization

Luleå, 2017-09-04 -- Effnet AB, a subsidiary of Effnetplattformen AB and the premier provider of header compression software for wireless and fixed networks, today announced that it has licensed its header compression technology to a company that specializes in WAN optimization of wireless links.

As more and more users are getting online, the demand for bandwidth is growing exponentially all across the world. The mobile wireless networks are reaching out to the users in both urban and rural areas. The satellite and microwave networks are proving to be competitive solutions to reach out to the users in remote areas as well as to serve as the connectivity or backhaul for mobile wireless networks. These wireless networks experience high latency and high bit error rates. It is essential to optimize these links for performance and efficiency and header compression is one of the important tools to achieve that.

"WAN optimization is a growing market. It is important to use the radio resources efficiently and deliver a better user experience. Wireless links are a challenging environment which requires complex but efficient solutions. Effnet's header compression solution excels in delivering high compression efficiency using only a small amount of memory and CPU cycles, very important characteristics when operating on high data and packet rate links." says Aniruddha Kulkarni, Managing Director of Effnet AB. "This agreement is another step in building a portfolio of contracts with recurring revenue streams for Effnet," he concludes.
