Across the world, broadband networks are coming to life with new performance capabilities supported by Camiant solutions. Camiant’s policy control platform, the Multimedia Policy Engine (MPE), along with our Bandwidth on Demand Application Manager (BoD AM), enable cable operators to deliver on-demand enhancements in network bandwidth immediately on request — without the need for modem reboots.
For cable network operators, Camiant’s MPE and BoD AM are powerful new tools for elevating revenues and locking in more satisfied customers. Among examples:
•
Self-provisioning services. Camiant customers are deploying BoD offerings that allow customers to self-provision faster data rates on upstream and downstream paths for a single application or the entire broadband connection. From media sharing to real-time, multiplayer video games — and just about anything in between — subscribers are experiencing new possibilities in broadband thanks to Camiant-infused networks.
•
Premium service sampling. Camiant customers are also employing BoD as a way to allow customers to sample the improvements rendered by premium-level broadband services featuring faster downstream data rates. Their thinking: once customers have experienced the improved performance, many will upgrade to premium offerings. In fact, one operator found that 45% of users who self-provision speed preview types of promotions permanently upgrade to the higher tier.
