Overview<\/b><\/td>\nBenefits<\/b><\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Internet access is critical to the success of schools and colleges today.<\/p>\n
    \n
  • Hard copy materials are being replaced by Educational content rich in images, graphics and video.<\/li>\n
  • Students of all ages must research material for themselves, developing the independent browsing and learning techniques they need in today\u2019s world.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Yet the available bandwidth never seems to be enough for long. Schools in all parts of the world are facing similar challenges:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Schools in high bandwidth areas are grappling with the drive towards 1:1 pupil to computer ratios and students using their own devices on the school network.<\/li>\n
    • More remote schools, those using VSAT and those in developing countries are rolling out internet-enabled learning often with little and\/or very costly bandwidth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      If your bandwidth is under pressure it can lead to problems:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Video and educational websites face slow loading times leaving the teacher frustrated and students bored.<\/li>\n
      • Software updates can bring the network grinding to a halt.<\/li>\n
      • Teachers learn to avoid bandwidth intensive content, or resort to \u201cteaching from the front of the class\u201d.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        CACHEBOX is the solution<\/b>: a dedicated web caching appliance designed to save your bandwidth and improve the speed with which your end-users can access web content. Network administrators can also monitor and control web traffic.<\/td>\n

Speed up Internet accessBecause content is downloaded to your local network, teachers and students get much quicker access to it. You can even pre-load the appliance with content so that it\u2019s ready for teachers before the start of class.Save bandwidth<\/p>\n

For many schools, bandwidth is either too expensive and\/or in short supply.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • For schools with narrow bandwidth in remote locations, a cache can make the internet usable in the classroom.<\/li>\n
  • Metropolitan areas from New York to Melbourne may have a lot more bandwidth, but this has simply allowed far more devices to be connected and far greater use of internet content. Caching allows these schools to fit many more devices on to their network and maintain good internet performance for
    \nusers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n
In simple cost savings alone, payback is rapid and return on investment is high.Video when you need itVideo accounts for the majority of traffic in most schools, and with CACHEBOX it no longer takes forever to load.Software updates without the painWindows or Apple updates can generate huge volumes of traffic on the network, making it painfully slow for users. CACHEBOX takes all that pressure off the Internet connection.<\/p>\n

Protect students from harmful content<\/p>\n

CACHEBOX works alongside third party content filters and lets you authenticate users against MS Active Directory, so you can enforce your student protection policies. You can keepa permanent record of internet requests, as well as tracking patterns and trends to aid in network planning.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\nevery need.<\/p>\n
    \n
  • CACHEBOX has different models to fit all school \/ bandwidth sizes.<\/li>\n
  • In multi-school networks, CACHEBOXes can be deployed as appropriate across individual schools\u00a0and the network core. They can work together in sibling clusters in the core and in parent-child\u00a0hierarchies across the network to maximise bandwidth saving and internet performance.<\/li>\n
  • The CACHEBOXCMC Central Management Console makes it easy to deploy and manage multiple\u00a0CACHEBOXes across an education authority.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n

    • WCCP Support (v.2, GRE and Layer 2)<\/li>\n
    • IP spoofing<\/li>\n
    • Firewall with NAT forwarding for

       <\/p>\n

      \u201cThe greatest thing is that the teacher generally previews things; thus\u00a0caching it. So it\u2019s cached and ready to go for when a class is accessing\u00a0the content. Some downloads could waste 5 or 10 minutes of class. That\u00a0time-waster is now eliminated.\u201d<\/p>\n
