Lose the Lost Packets and Latency: FileCatalyst™ 2.0 Boosts Mac Bandwidth Effectiveness for Large File Transfer Across Global Networks

LAS VEGAS, NV and OTTAWA, ON, 19 April, 2007 – FileCatalyst 2.0 from Unlimi-Tech Software Inc. offers Mac-based creative professionals in broadcasting, post production, content, digital delivery and system integration firms a software-based solution offering maximum throughput for large point-to-point or multi-cast file transfer applications.

Featuring patent-pending acceleration technology with less than 1% overhead, on-the-fly compression and byte-level incremental transfers, FileCatalyst 2.0 for the Mac uses software automation to overcome the file transfer inefficiencies associated with packet loss and latency. Not only can FileCatalyst guarantee line speed for Mac-based networks, it can actually provide effective throughput 2–3 times greater than line speed. This translates to speeds 50 or more times faster than traditional transfer methods.

FileCatalyst 2.0 offers the following features for Mac creative professionals:

  • Transfer data at line speed, immune to affects of RTT and packet loss
  • No additional hardware requirements or line upgrades
  • Push and Pull files or entire directories
  • Incremental transfers of file deltas
  • On-the-fly compression
  • Industry standard SSL for control channel, and AES for data encryption
  • Automatically detect line speed with adaptive rate control
  • User-based authentication with permissions control
  • Universal Plug and Play automatically maps required UDP ports
  • Cross-platform support (Mac OSX, Linux, Solaris, Windows).

For Mac system integrators, FileCatalyst 2.0 offers four client applications that provide ultimate customization options.

  • HotFolders make large file transfers as easy as dragging and dropping or saving a file into a folder that is incorporated directly into existing workflow processes
  • Applets provide application hooks that tightly integrate into J2EE, .NET, PHP or other Web application frameworks so that users can browse for a file and click an upload/download button in the browser to transfer large files across global networks
  • A Command Line Interface (CLI) allows integrators to replace or complement other script-driven file transfer mechanisms
  • A Software development Kit (SDK) gives programmers the power to build FileCatalyst 2.0 transfers into any system
