BRUSSELS, Belgium--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Openwave Mobility, a global software innovator of value-added services for the mobile telecommunications industry, today announced the availability of the latest version of its Congestion Control (CC) Media Optimizer product, a video optimization solution that enables mobile operators to manage congestion when it occurs in localized hotspots rather than requiring brute force compression of all video on the network at all times. CCs Media Optimizer automatically triggers optimization when the network reaches pre-determined thresholds and gives operators the ability to intelligently analyze and implement video optimization based on real-time network conditions.

Today MP4 videos make up a high volume of video traffic, creating a strain on the networks. Openwave Mobility has observed in customer deployments that roughly 80 percent of all smartphone video traffic is MP4. This new version of Media Optimizer provides inline MP4 optimization, which dynamically optimizes MP4 video traffic only when necessary while maintaining or improving user quality of experience (QoE). This inline MP4 capability is in addition to Media Optimizers existing inline optimization already available for earlier video types.

Operators are focused more than ever on staying ahead of the growing number of mobile video formats and bandwidth demands stemming from the ever growing popularity and proliferation of Android and iOS devices, said John Giere, CEO, Openwave Mobility. We believe our inline MP4 product, which has been tested live in our customers networks, will deliver immediate network efficiencies and increase subscriber QoE for MP4 video traffic.

Media Optimizer is part of Openwave Mobilitys Congestion Control solution and can be delivered pre-integrated with Openwave Mobilitys other Congestion Control and Price Plan Innovation solutions. Openwave Mobilitys Media Optimizer is available immediately. Please contact sales@owmobility.com for more information.
