IP Networks - more reach, more capacity and faster than a cycle courier

Innovation and new technology are changing the way digital media is consumed faster than ever before. The 21st century is very much the media industry’s time: tech savvy consumers increasingly provide a market for data-intensive 3D and HD content and are consuming content online, offline and On Demand.

With the media creation and distribution markets thriving in the digital age, technology infrastructure has been playing catch-up. The transfer of data-rich files went from tape to courier to the distributor where arrival times were dependent on traffic.

Content ready: multiple services and a robust Network

The Exponential-e VPLS Layer 2 IP Network - the first 100GigE core Network in the UK is used to carry media traffic from some of the UK’s largest media content creators; be it digital agencies, post-production houses or music publishers.

Our Network has the capacity to ensure file transfer is done in real-time and uncompressed. Our IP Network is scalable; ensuring a seamless increase in bandwidth and direct connections to Cloud platforms including Amazon, Google and Akamai. Finally, in an industry that works round-the-clock, we provide a robust network with 24 x 7 support.

More than 200 customers - Marketing, PR, music and publishing agencies

"Exponential-e has developed innovative vertical solutions for the media vertical, including GPU on demand, and partnering with Microsoft Azure to deliver storage and analytics services.”

"The IP VPN solutions which we first considered required us to use highly-complex access-control lists. With the solution designed by Exponential-e, you don’t have this headache as it’s all done via secure Layer 2 broadcast domains."
