Featuring unmatched scale and intelligence in a broadband service optimization platform, the Arbor e100 delivers the highest levels of subscriber density, throughput, service flexibility and carrier-class reliability.

Deeper into the Packet for Precise Service Management
The e100 identifies applications through signatures in the data packet and through sophisticated traffic-pattern analysis to provide unprecedented visibility into subscriber usage, service utilization and service quality on a per application basis. As new applications are discovered on the network, their signatures can be added to the e100. The e100 platform can even identify applications within applications, such as streaming video, VoIP and gaming applications within a Web (HTTP) download. As a result, the e100 provides the necessary granular insight into subscriber and application usage to develop more effective marketing programs and services based on actual traffic analysis patterns.

Designed to Support Your Revenue and Operational Goals
Today’s service providers face challenging operational objectives, including the need to:

• Ensure sound capacity planning by understanding current usage patterns and accurately predicting future trends.
• Manage a growing proliferation of bandwidth-intensive applications.
• Deliver customized service plans that increase customer satisfaction and reduce churn.
• Develop competitive yet profitable pricing models based on usage quotas.

To help achieve these objectives, the Arbor e100 solution includes management appliances that integrate the hardware and software needed for accurate reporting and traffic monitoring. The Arbor eSeries Command Center (“eCC”) and eSeries Subscriber Center (“eSC”) appliances provide the network visibility for analytics and reporting, bandwidth management, service plan management and quota management.

• Scalable, Carrier-Class Design – Handles the traffic and demands of today’s largest broadband networks, by scaling to 20 Gbps and support for millions of subscribers.
• Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) Technology – Leverages intelligent Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology to detect application signatures of any length, anywhere in the packet payload, across packet fragments.
• Application Integration – The e100’s management appliances offer an appliance-based management architecture that simplifies deployment and support Arbor’s integrated suite of Service Logic Software modules.
• Flexible API for Back-Office Integration – Enables back-office systems to provision subscribers, manage quotas and collect detailed usage information.
• Centralized Management and Reporting – Provides scalable and redundant centralized management and reporting via the eSeries management appliances.
