NETWORK MANAGEMENT
EXPAND NETWORKS

ROSELAND, NJ--Expand Networks has integrated new data integrity features into its ACCELERATOR product line. Drop Recovery Code (DRC) and Flow Control (FC), combined with the data-reduction benefits of the vendor's byte-level caching and compression technologies, can reduce data surge and increase the flow of rich-content enterprise applications, the vendor says.

Flow Control regulates and optimizes available bandwidth and network resources by limiting data flow to a specific bandwidth speed, Expand Network claims.
