    The Apollo Evolution is a combination of host-end hardware and software, with the Apollo Emulator as the client software.

    Designed to target the small, medium and corporate businesses, the solution brings flexibility and reliability to both users on the move and home workers alike. The Apollo Evolution addresses all mobile access needs by seamlessly integrating all the aspects of remote access and business on the move into one package.

      Key Features

    • All the benefits of spoofing, compression and GSM access
    • Flexible mix of low cost hardware & software
    • True Compatibility with the LAN environment, applications and networks
    • Dynamic Bandwidth Management

    Why Evolution?

    The Apollo Evolution is not just a remote access server. It is a remote access service platform for the corporate and small enterprise which combines many areas of LAN and mobile working with the use of GSM.

    The Evolution can accommodate anything from a single modem, through ISDN, Satellite, multiple primary rate ISDN interfaces with dynamic V.110, GSM V.110, V.120, GSM , HSCSD, V.90 and PSTN. This flexibility allows the business to merge all their communications into one seamless solution which is capable of growing with the business needs.

    The Evolution will simply and securely extend the LAN including all applications to anybody equipped with an Apollo Emulator (Client Software) and a portable device such as a laptop.

    The essential ingredient to a successful mobile data solution is reliability, without which costs escalate and the user experience ensures a short life for the project. The Evolution includes Brand's proven algorithms for session management (spoofing), call recovery and compression which make it a effective and efficient remote access solution.

    Session Management

    Brand's technology maintains the session whist only making calls when there is either data to be sent or received. The user simply logs onto the solution once in the morning, and from there the Apollo session manages the user, giving them a virtual all day connection. Apollo sends and receives IP packets, if there are no packets to be sent or received Apollo transparently disconnects the line.

    Call Recovery

    Call Recovery removes the need for the users to reconnect after dropped calls or indeed to re-transmit any of the information again. If the line disconnects in the middle of the transfer, Apollo simply holds the information in place, tells the device to re-establish the connection and on doing so continues to send the information from exactly where it left off. All this takes place without user intervention.

    Compression

    Apollo increases the transmission speeds with its unique compression algorithm, this significantly speeds up the transferal of information.

    Security

    Apollo ensures secure network access is provided at all times, offering the highest level of security using authentication protocols.

    Summary

    The Apollo Evolution provides many benefits to any organisation implementing mobile data solutions. Apollo helps productivity and efficiency for the mobile user which include:

    • Shorter Log in Times
    • No waiting for dial up connections
    • No manual reconnect after dropped calls
    • No retransmission of data
    • Total reliability with no user intervention

    Apollo is not only resilient and secure but also exceptionally economical when run over communications such as GSM or HSCSD. This now means that a remote worker can run all of their standard LAN applications with the full confidence that Apollo is managing the session, the link and the cost.
