Voyant delivers huge breakthrough for the Internet.
It could be called software that solves the "last mile", or a "last mile" software solution.
The Internet is comprised of a few high speed “highways” that enable data to travel at rapid speeds across great distances. A big problem comes when data is forced off of those highways and must take a side street “last mile of connectivity” to your home or business. This slowdown in speed is often referred to as the “bandwidth bottleneck”.
Voyant's RocketConnect provides a breakthrough in last mile connectivity by solving bandwidth bottleneck.
The “last mile” refers to the distance between your Internet provider’s server and your modem (PC, laptop, or mobile). This bottleneck is a multi-billion dollar problem and occurs when surfing the web or downloading data. This problem isn't isolated just to the U.S.
In many communities, last-mile technology represents a major remaining challenge to high-bandwidth services because laying wire and cables is an enormous physical (and expensive) undertaking.
RocketConnect, a software solution, eliminates the need for Internet providers to purchase and install expensive hardware because it beefs up the size of each customer's Internet "exit ramp" (like paving the potholes on all the side streets so you can drive faster on them).
From the press release:
RocketConnect creates a streamlined, software-defined tunnel between the ISP’s server infrastructure and the customer’s modem or computer, the “last mile” of connectivity where conventional access methods often present a bandwidth bottleneck.
Unlike other proposed solutions that require an infrastructure replacement to enhance last-mile connectivity, RocketConnect provides a fast, easy-to-deploy solution that keeps ISP costs low and enhances consumer satisfaction.
RocketConnect gives Internet service providers (ISP) an inexpensive, fast (limited network downtime) solution that eliminates the bandwidth bottleneck. Using RocketConnect, data travels on those major highways right to your modem without the slowing effects of having to use side streets, eliminating any bandwidth bottleneck.
How big is the bandwidth bottleneck problem?
Communication companies are spending billions developing last mile solutions and telcos/ISP’s are spending hundreds of millions on hardware trying to eliminate this bottleneck.
Because RocketConnect enhances wireless, satellite, cable, and fiber access connections we see this software solution as an immediate revenue opportunity for any service providers, and Voyant.
Upcoming data boom and slowing economy..the timing is perfect.
Internet providers are trying to find ways to add value in order to generate revenues, without large capital outlays. Boosting broadband access connections by up to 500% without the expense of any new physical infrastructure seems like an easy way for ISPs to charge a customer an additional $10 per month or more, per user, PER MONTH (our figures).
What Internet provider wouldn't adopt RocketConnect? It stretches the useful life of existing infrastructure that's already been invested in, so there's an immediate ROI, and it keeps customers from defecting.
We see ISPs using this solution as a great marketing tool. "No more bandwidth bottleneck". ISPs win, customers win and Voyant wins with a dual revenue stream (recurring).
How does RocketConnect fit in the RocketStream platform?
RocketStream customers are quickly discovering how RocketStream eliminates latency across great distances through the Internet. However, each user must have RS installed on their device in order to send/receive. Data is delivered between two points privately.
Until RocketStream is embedded on every server, website, and modem (Voyant's goal), RocketConnect provides an immediate data delivery solution for the INTERNET.
A service provider like Time Warner, Verizon or Comcast would embed RocketConnect on their servers. In addition they either update modems with RC or sell new modems with RC, or just install RC on a customer's PC. Every customer that subscribes to this "upgraded" service will overcome the last mile problem when surf or download data from any location.
RocketStream-- moves data rapidly between two users over great distances. A movie studio in LA uses RS to send data to a studio in NY. Think of RS as providing a direct connection between two points over the Net that allows a fast data delivery connection (the greater the distance the more powerful RS becomes)....A solution for one to one.
RocketConnect--moves data rapidly from your service provider to your modem... the "last mile". RC makes your own individual highway exit much bigger. No more "here you turn off the paved road..." A solution for many web customers from one (service provider).
Our take:
Voyant's RocketConnect is breakthrough technology that solves a huge problem for the Internet. While service providers have continued to offer increased bandwidth speeds, they have still yet to solve the "last mile" problem, until now.
This bottleneck is preventing various next generation Internet services from being introduced.
The timing of RC allows ISPs to generate immediate revenues. Because the ISPs can generate an immediate revenue stream, they become motivated RocketConnect resellers.
EVERY service provider in EVERY country would have a vested interest in adopting RocketConnect, creating a world of resellers" of RocketConnect.
We see a dual revenue stream for Voyant; a one time purchase price as well as monthly service revenue.
The number of servers and modems that could install RocketConnect is staggering.
RocketConnect seems like a must-have for all ISPs, especially for the “major North American telco” that has been referenced in several filings.
How the "big picture" for RocketStream is getting bigger.
Voyant has spent over two years building the RocketStream platform. The first product provides a fat-pipe INTERNET solution for corporations, enterprises and tech saavy individuals (overcomes great distances but industrial market)....catered to specific file transfers. "Fedex of Data Delivery". RocketStream solves the big problem of delivering data over long distances.
The latest product, RocketConnect can move data rapidly from your service provider's server to your modem (short distance and large market)...
This product removes those "side streets" for every person that visits a website or downloads any type of digital content (consumer market, so huge volumes) RocketConnect solves the "last mile" problem.
We are hearing the RocketStream "agent" that Proginet has been building, is close too. This "agent" makes it easy for websites to embed and use RocketStream to transfer data. (Many to many). We see this application as a "must have" application for any ecommerce site or site that utilizes video.
RocketStream platform:
When you combine the abilities of RocketStream, RocketConnect and the soon to be released "agent", any type of data can be moved at rapid speeds regardless of location, provider or size.
The timing of the RocketConnect launch and the soon to be released "agent", should be precursors for many licensing opportunities.
