Mobile packet traffic is forecasted to grow by a factor of ten in less than five years with video consuming more than 50% of projected new bandwidth growth. Normal growth challenges have been exacerbated by the recent proliferation of high powered mobile devices such as smart phones and netbooks which produce increasingly unpredictable data traffic patterns. This mobile growth is in addition to the doubling of packet based traffic every 18 months based on current and ever increasing new Web and Internet services.
Verisma solves this on-demand, unpredictable packet traffic problem. The unveiling of the product this year follows a 10 year journey of 10,000 hours of development and dedication by John Dunne and Tom Farrell who founded Intune Networks in Dublin in 1999. Both UCD graduates, they were researching tuneable laser technology in European funded programmes. Over the next 11 years, Intune developed and refined its technology and today is focussed on the telecoms equipment market where the next generation of digital service requirements such as quality of experience and high on-demand bandwidths are creating a new global opportunity which Verisma meets. Intune currently employs 120 people and has design centres in Dublin and Belfast.
Early versions of the products are already on trial with several large European operators having validated the core technology performance over the past 2 years...
