Procera Provides Network Intelligence for European Tier-1 Operator

FREMONT, CA—Sept. 27, 2011 - Procera Networks, Inc. ("Procera") (NYSE Amex: PKT), the intelligent policy enforcement company, today announced a $4 million follow- on order from a major European fixed/mobile network operator that has chosen the PL10000 to provide 120Gbps policy enforcement for pure transit- and long-distance link management to effectively reduce costs and manage bandwidth allocation for bandwidth-hungry traffic.

The follow-on order represents an acceleration of an initial deployment and a geographic increase that will expand the network across a large European country. As part of the engagement, Procera will conduct a traffic peering and inter-city-link traffic-management analysis to give the operator visibility into the applications and content passing across its wide-area links and the resulting effect on the Quality of Experience (QoE) it provides to subscribers.

The real-time analytics and intelligence reporting provided by the Procera solution gave the customer a clear view of the congestion points in its network caused by heavy file-sharing usage and bandwidth-intensive apps like streaming video content. With the geographic extension and the intelligence, this operator will be able to accurately manage its network traffic and create services that can maximize QoE for its subscribers.

"This follow-on order is a great example of the strategic value Procera adds and reflects the growth potential we see in the European market," said Paul Gracie, VP of EMEA Sales for Procera Networks. "Coming into this deployment from the beginning enabled us to demonstrate the tangible value of our intelligent policy enforcement solution, so our customer could see right away that to fully realize the growth potential of its network, it needs the scalability that only we can offer."

The PL10000 delivers scalable Intelligent Policy Enforcement (IPE), supporting up to 120Gbps of throughput in a single system, and up to 2Tbps from a multi-system. The product enables rapidly-growing networks to provide intelligence beyond 10Gbps of capacity, thereby accounting for the explosive growth of traffic from bandwidth-hungry applications like social networks and streaming video.
