WASHINGTON, DC and OTTAWA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- February 19,
2007 -- FileCatalyst from Unlimi-Tech Software Inc. offers
satellite data users and providers a software-only solution
offering maximum throughput for large point-to-point or multi-cast
file transfer applications. In addition, FileCatalyst can
be easily installed in less than 20 minutes for fast, interactive
collaboration on large datasets and is specifically designed
for satellite-based media, government, military and enterprise
Wide Area Networks (WANs).
Previous to FileCatalyst, satellite data users and providers
relied on traditional software solutions for file transfers
that were severely affected by degrading network conditions.
Alternatively, users deployed hardware acceleration applications
requiring three to five days to physically set up and test
at each end of a transmission, while offering inferior connection
throughput.
"We can guarantee a FileCatalyst customer's connection
throughput improvement before we even deliver the software,"
said Chris Bailey, Unlimi-Tech's CEO, "and it's usually
a dramatic increase. FileCatalyst provides a cross-platform
file transfer solution that improves bandwidth utilization
and file transfer reliability to save time and money. New
features of FileCatalyst that benefit the satellite market
include multicast, incremental transfers and compression on
the fly."
Founded in 2002, Rain Network is a Brazilian company that
has created a solution for the independent cinema market by
interconnecting theatres in a digital network. With offices
in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, New York and London, Rain Network
uses FileCatalyst to transmit films in digital format, by
satellite, cable and DSL to more than 120 locations around
the world.
"We tested a number of products and decided on FileCatalyst
from a company and technology perspective," said Fernando
Fortes, Technical Manager of Rain Network.
FileCatalyst features include:-- Transfer data at line speed,
immune to affects of RTT and packet loss
