Tier 1 Western European Service Provider Deploys Procera Networks' PacketLogic 20000 PlatformsFREMONT, CA, Dec 11, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Procera Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: PKT), the global intelligent policy enforcement company, today announced it has received a follow-on $1.3 million order from a Tier 1 multi-system operator (MSO) in Western Europe. This operator serves broadband subscribers across its countrywide footprint as part of its residential triple play service offerings. This customer first installed Procera PacketLogic(TM) 10000 platforms in 2008 and with this order, is upgrading to the PacketLogic 20000 to take advantage of its industry-leading throughput capacity, massive scalability and high availability features. Procera expects to recognize the majority of revenue from this order in the fourth quarter of 2012, and the first quarter of 2013. "This operator was one of Procera's first service provider customers and this order re-affirms their commitment to our solutions with the deployment of our latest technology," said Paul Gracie, Vice President of Europe, Africa, and the Middle East (EMEA) at Procera. "They have seen increasing usage in their broadband Internet services and decided to make network investments today that will continue to serve their needs into the future. Their key requirements, with all their experience factored in, included the need to scale and handle heavy traffic volumes in robust, high availability configurations to ensure that they are always gathering network intelligence. In the highly competitive market service providers are facing now, real-time detailed network analytics are crucial to optimizing their business models." Network operators worldwide face huge growth in broadband traffic volumes and are looking to add analytics that transform how they optimize their network infrastructure investments and extend their business models to add incremental revenue streams. The key to the realization of these operator goals is to make their networks more intelligent. This intelligence not only enables operators to monitor bandwidth usage but also lets them see in real-time the characteristics of broadband traffic generated by their subscribers, and then profile that usage in order to create new services that benefit subscribers.
