As network connectivity becomes more essential around the world, networking solutions need to take advantage of both legacy and new communication technologies. At UniVirtua, we believe that in order to meet this challenge, such solutions must be highly adaptive and therefore; software-defined. For this reason, we have developed the dashAlpha platform.

dashAlpha

dashAlpha is an advanced software-defined networking platform with a focus on intelligent, seamless, resilient and secure network access across a multitude of bearer technologies – whilst being simple and easy to use.

Our ‘zero touch’ philosophy with regard to user interaction has resulted in a platform with a simple user interface and a high level of automation to deliver a secure, high-bandwidth network access connection with minimal effort.  dashAlpha enables a user to gain network access by simultaneously using different technologies – such as 5G, LTE, WiFi and satellite – to create a single high-bandwidth and secure connection which is resilient to drop-outs and other network failures. 

In achieving this, dashAlpha is able to not only deliver high bandwidth for streaming services such as Netflix and YouTube but to also deliver seamless network connectivity for communications applications such as WhatsApp, Skype, Teams and Zoom. Additionally, the software-defined nature of dashAlpha enables it to run on a variety of COTS (Commercial-off-the-Shelf) hardware, enabling flexible deployment options.

Target Markets

UniVirtua envisages dashAlpha being beneficial in many different markets, especially where communications infrastructure is poor. Through bonding multiple links, the system provides a stabilised, secure, authenticated and resilient network connection upon which users can communicate and exchange data.

Such key markets encompass:

Defence
(deployed troops, command HQs, buildings of opportunity, vehicles on the move, etc.)

Government & Security
(deployed staff, overseas offices, etc.)

Blue Light Services
(fire, ambulance, police, disaster relief, etc.)

Commercial & NGO
(construction, broadcast media, lone worker, passenger transport, freight, maritime, etc.)
