Q-KON anticipates strong demand from its service provider partners for iDX 3.1 to support enterprise-class networks for corporations. In the case of Business Connexion, iDX 3.1 enables the company to enhance its enterprise cloud services solutions, offering corporations the benefits of virtualization at a lower cost. iDX 3.1 is a great fit for Business Connexion because it is specially designed for the large network deployments required to run an efficient and affordable cloud infrastructure.
?
iDX 3.1 includes a new 16-channel licensing option for the Evolution XLC-M Line Card that, when paired with the new lower-cost X1 remote, is an ideal solution for large networks featuring one large outbound and numerous small return channels. Additionally, iDX 3.1?s built-in Group Quality of Service (GQoS) enhancements allow service providers to serve customers with large dormant networks more efficiently and affordably by lowering the amount of bandwidth needed to keep idle remotes in network. Finally, the Evolution X1 Outdoor remotes, which are designed for durability in difficult terrain and weather conditions, offer a reliable solution for sensor-management applications such as SCADA, as well as environmental and surveillance monitoring.
?
?Large-scale networks are an important growth area for Q-KON and iDX 3.1 coupled with the X1 remote bundle allows us and our partners to pursue these opportunities with confidence. We were one of the first operators to implement an iDX 3.0 hub in South Africa, and now we are very proud to be one of the first network operators to upgrade to iDX 3.1.?
~ Dawie DE WET
CEO, Q-KON

?Cloud services are all about reliability and speed as well as security. This upgrade will cater to our clients? needs on all three of these levels and help us maintain our position as market leaders in the cloud space. We chose the right technology partners in Q-KON and iDirect for this deployment and we are excited at the opportunities that iDX 3.1 and the X1 remote bundle enables for us.?
