Remoteusersessionsaretransparentlysplit,orproxied,withnewsessionsopenedacross the link using protocol acceleration and data compression to overcomecommonwirelessissues: Varying latency (delay) due to long links and mobility High bit error rates due to constantly changing RF link conditions Link asymmetry via return rate differences or hybrid return links Dynamically changing data rates, such as ACM and advanced TDMA

XipOS offers multiple techniques to optimize web browsing, providing bothcapacity savings and faster browsing. All products incorporate basic HTTPAccelerationcapabilities.Thedynamiccachingoptionwill typically save20-30%of the bandwidth. Xiplink Hub Optimization (XHO), using lossless and lossycompressiontechniques,cansaveafurther10-30%ofbandwidth.

TheXiplinkRealTime(XRT)featuresetprovidesupto50%savingsonvoiceandsmall packet traffic by using standards based header compression and packetcoalescing.Thisnotonlysavesbandwidth,,italsosignificantlylowersthepackets-per-second(PPS)onthenetwork.

XipOSprovidesuserswithdeploymentflexibilitythataccommodatesbridgemode,routermode, transparentmode, tunnelmode, in-linemode,out-of-pathmode,single-interfacemode,andWCCPdeploymentmode.XipOSbasedplatformscanoperate in any of these configurations, independent of themode used on theothersideofthe link.Xiplink’sadvancedwebGUIconfigurationandmonitoringinterface,makesthesystemverysimpletoconfigurationandinstallinanynetwork.
