European Cable Operator, ZON, Virtually Expands Data Links by 30% Using DiViNetworks

ZON's network in the Azores Islands is now connected to continental Portugal at increased data capacity with the DiViLink system

LISBON, Portugal, March 8, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    ZON, the leading cable TV provider in Portugal, has selected DiViNetworks
[http://www.divinetworks.com ] to optimize the link to Azores, satisfying the growing
demand for bandwidth.

    DiViNetworks portfolio of products and services enable Internet Service Providers to
virtually add data capacity, regardless of the applications used, and with links as narrow
as 10Mbps and as broad as 100Gbps.

    "With DiViLink we can now affordably improve connectivity to our subscribers in
Azores," says Marco Filipe Dias de Carvalho, Head of IP Core and Access Network in ZON.
"The DiViLink system seamlessly slipped into our advanced network, and we immediately
enjoyed its benefits."

    Following thorough testing of the DiViLink [http://www.divinetworks.com/divilink ]
system in ZON's labs and on selective links, ZON chose to deploy DiViLink on the main
trunk to Azores. ZON's network employs advanced networking functions, ensuring network
resilience and high-availability. Operating at the bit-stream layer, just like a switch,
DiViLink was proven to be fully compliant with these mechanisms and maintained all
networking functions as is.

    "ZON strives to provide the same service in its remote networks, as in the continent,
despite the high connectivity prices," says Dr. Yair Shapira, VP Marketing and Business
Development in DiViNetworks. "We are very proud of helping ZON achieve this goal, and will
continue to support ZON in additional territories."
