Takes simple internet access to the next level:
- Enables operators to offer guaranteed bandwidth levels, always on or only when needed
- Allows more detailed Service Level Agreements (SLAs) to be costructed, providing a higher level of revenue generating service
- Operators are able to offer tiered data services at different prices depending on the subscribers bandwidth needs.
Each Subscriber can be provisioned for a specific - and different - maximum rate. This provides operators with new service packages to offer subscribers.
Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and the promise of guaranteed bandwidth turn cable operators into viable services providers for business customers as well.
Operators are looking for ways to generate additional revenue from existing subscriber bases, capture cost sensitive customers, manage bandwidth and improve the end user's experience.
Subscribers like the ability to have more control over their experience as well as their bill. With tiered services, they can select the bandwidth they need for specific applications, from simple web browsing to telecommuting requirements
Individual subscribers can have different levels of services depending on the applications that they use. For example, messaging could e set at a higher priority than File Transfer Protocol (FTP) services.
With tiered services, operators can more effectively manage their network usage and set priorities based on the impact on the end user.
