Colt Technology Services has launched the second iteration of its SD-WAN proposition, named SD-WAN 2.0.

This development is an evolution of the original SD-WAN propositions from Colt, in reaction to constant changes in requirements for enterprises, hoping to appeal to companies that will need a long-term solution to address the needs of their growing remote workforce.

As part of the SD-WAN 2.0 experience, Colt is launching new features to address future requirements; the WAN optimisation suite, advanced firewall enhancement, enhanced network insights, and an optional Self-Install CPE capability.

The WAN optimisation suite employs packet cloning and Forward Error Correction (FEC) techniques to enable end-users to experience improved quality and speed of mission-critical applications across their network.

Colt’s enhanced security at the network edge (SASE) offers 3-tier security across a customer’s WAN, LAN, and DMZ and is capable of supporting integrated Dynamic NAT and DDoS protection.

Its new advanced analytics platform, powered by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML), empowers customers with greater depth and granularity in network reporting. Colt’s Self-Install CPE feature also offers an option for customers to enable Colt’s SD-WAN service safely and rapidly.

Colt’s Vice President Product Portfolio, Peter Coppens, said:

“Colt has been investing in SD-WAN for the past few years, and we have seen the technology become a true enabler for the way enterprises do business”

“When we first launched Colt SD-WAN, we weren’t to know it was going to assist organisations through such a large and rapid transformation this year. We are excited to continue to build on our award-winning SD-WAN offering with SD-WAN 2.0 because we know this new suite of features will enable customers to accelerate their business evolutions through enhanced user experience, powerful analytics, and end-to-end security.”
