Customer Case Studies

InSite™ Simulation Tools are the culmination of many years of Adaptive Networks' experience developing and applying communications on challenging impaired media such as the powerline. InSite™ is a significant breakthrough for customers enabling the verification of communications performance before major design and implementation investments are made.

Here are three examples.

Case Studies & Testimonials
ABB Subsea Gas Production Communication Systems
ABB installs large-scale, mission-critical subsea communications systems for gas production customers that use fibre from the surface and Adaptive's powerline communications to the numerous operations and devices at the bottom. Communications through the powerline takes place at multiple branches with multiple network spurs - a very complex and intensive installation in remote locations. Since ABB does not have the luxury of "trying" the modems on any given network until the system is installed, they MUST be able to model the network and the communications system, to mitigate the risk of having connectivity problems when the system is installed. ABB uses InSite™ to predict the operability of the modems on any subsea network considering the use of Adaptive's modems. Thus InSite™ is giving ABB the extra confidence to pursue their subsea communications business using Adaptive's powerline communications.  

VDSL Technology Developer
  Adaptive was approached by a developer of a promising DSL technology. The company believed it was possible to provide much higher throughput speeds at much greater distances over impaired copper phone lines than had ever been achieved in practice. In cooperation with the DSL company Adaptive Networks defined the topology and noise and channel properties of impaired copper phone lines in the field. This information was input into InSite™ including parameters for the copper phoneline environment and Adaptive technology. Insite™ simulations proved that a new level of performance over far greater distances can be achieved. This gave the DSL company the confidence to proceed.

Broadband Power Line Internet Access Developer

Broadband Powerline Internet Access is a burgeoning field with great promise. Many companies are seeking to rapidly exploit this opportunity. One such company, with a strong desire to overcome market skepticsm and validate their approach, asked Adaptive to provide tools for simulating peformance. In this way, they could confidently go to market to win business with utilities knowing that their technology solution was rock solid.
