Underpinned by our SD-WAN platform, our SD-HOME solution extends your corporate security and compliance policies to the home, whilst also maintaining the availability of business-critical applications to your employee over a secure overlay network. This improves your overall endpoint security and maximises staff productivity.

• Enhanced application visibility
• Extension of corporate security and compliance policies to the home
• Prioritises business-critical application performance to safeguard user experience
• Single policy-base stretching all your home users and branch offices with SD-WAN, utilising software-defined edge control
• Enhanced business continuity, enabling key users to access business-critical resources quickly and reliably when they need them

By leveraging advanced routing and application recognition capabilities on our SD-HOME platform, Exponential-e can ensure that your video conferencing application is appropriately prioritised over other applications your home users may have open at the application layer.

By leveraging software-defined edge control, Exponential-e can replicate your corporate security and compliance policies on the SD-HOME device.

Yes. Exponential-e will configure policies pertaining to application priority for customers, based on individual requirement.

Exponential-e will provide access to a cloud management portal, which will enable network administrators to be able to view and analyse traffic profiles for users across the platform.

SD-HOME is an underlay-agnostic solution, which can be run over a number of transport types. Whilst in a traditional network, you may look at Quality of Service (QoS) to prioritise traffic streams, in a Software-Defined Network (SDN) we focus on how we can improve the overall user experience by leveraging advanced routing and application recognition capabilities on our platform, which we refer to as Quality of Experience (QoE).

Exponential-e offer a number of options when it comes to securing your corporate WiFi at home as part of our SD-HOME solution, including MAC address whitelisting and 802.1X authentication to your RADIUS server.

Exponential-e’s SD-HOME platform contains a number of multi-tenant software-defined gateways, which act as central VPN concentrators, terminating your secure WAN overlay and providing access to your corporate network, along with additional overlay services such as SIP trunking.

Some of our SD-HOME solutions rely on the deployment of dedicated VPN concentrators, known as ‘hubs’, in the network. These are often deployed in one of our tier 3 colocation datacentres, although their implementation will be defined subject to your requirements.

Our SD-HOME solution provides a secure extension of your corporate network to the home, providing network segregation for your corporate endpoints from other devices. This segregation protects your endpoints from the exploitation of vulnerabilities in home devices outside of your control, which can be used to gain access to the corporate network.

Data in-flight is encrypted within your IPSec-based secure overlay network, terminating on one of our SD-WAN gateways or a network hub, where required.

Combined with our SD-WAN solution, we can also provide a single policy structure across both home and branch locations.

Our SD-HOME appliances are designed to integrate into a residential environment. They take a small form-factor, produce very little noise and may have wall-mounting capabilities where required.
