Bandwidth management and traffic-shaping algorithms enforce Quality of Service (QoS) policies.
Blue Coat’s PacketShaper (formerly Packeteer) appliance delivers integrated visibility, control and compression capabilities in a single appliance.
PacketShaper detects and classifies hundreds of business and recreational applications.
It identifies top applications, users, servers, branch offices, and web destinations. Net managers discover what’s monopolizing links and controlling bandwidth.
Blue Coat’s Shaper prioritizes business-critical traffic over non-essential and recreational transfers.
Administrators regain control through application visibility and policy enforcement. They set policies using a sophisticated but simple graphical interface.
PacketShaper gives bandwidth back to your network.
Shaper improves throughput and traffic flow and minimizes latency. Your organization postpones costly bandwidth and infrastructure upgrades.
Users realize true QoS for IP telephony and video conferencing.
Latency is unacceptable for real-time communication. PacketShaper effectively manages critical IP protocols, delivering WAN capacity and true QoS functionality.
Admins use PacketShaper to set standards for service levels and track compliance.
They can measure, graph, and/or export more than 100 metrics describing usage, availability, efficiency, response times, errors, and diagnostics. Details set the stage for more accurate planning and smarter infrastructure investment.
