Riverbed Steelhead:

Going faster – much faster!

Want a WAN that performs like a LAN? Need to backup data in minutes not hours? Want to conserve your bandwidth? Dream about going 100 times faster? Now, with Riverbed you can do all this and more!

Riverbed Steelhead is fast, very fast. If you need speed then the Riverbed Optimisation System that powers the Steelhead is the one for you. Created by California-based, multi-award winning Riverbed Technology Inc, the Steelhead appliance was named "The best WAN Accelerator 2006” by prestigious industry magazine InfoWorld. And we can see why!

Steelhead dramatically increases performance. Up to 100 times faster in many cases. SICL’s test results below show an average increase in speed of 83%. Now that’s fast! In practical terms it means you can send and receive updated files in seconds instead of minutes or hours; backups now only take minutes and you get a massive reduction in bandwidth utilisation - you can eliminate 60% to 95% of your current use. So the Steelhead can save you time and money, not just now, but in the future. An impressive piece of kit! Don’t upgrade your WAN links and pay year after year – optimise them to make massive  cost savings.

SICL has partnered with Riverbed to offer our clients the chance to go faster with Steelhead.
