WATERLOO, ONTARIO--(MARKET WIRE)--Jan 6, 2009 -- Attention: Technology Editors

Sandvine, (Toronto:SVC.TO - News)(AIM: SAND) a leading provider of intelligent broadband network solutions for cable, DSL, FTTx, fixed wireless and mobile operators, today announced six new customers from its four sales regions, including four through strategic reseller partnerships.

Sandvine has won initial deployments at:

- three Tier 1 DSL providers (service providers with more than one million broadband subscribers), located in Brazil, Europe and Japan;

- the incumbent DSL provider in Kenya; and

- a wireless operator in Argentina, that is one of the top 100 wireless providers globally, by number of voice subscribers.

These customers are deploying a variety of products including Sandvine's policy traffic switch (PTS) platform and solutions to create new services, manage congestion in their networks, generate network demographic reports, protect against malicious traffic and gain visibility into the traffic and trends on their networks.

"By understanding what is happening on their networks and using tools to implement policy controls, these service providers can better serve their subscribers, optimize traffic, offer new services, mitigate malicious traffic and identify network trends before they become customer issues," said Tom Donnelly, EVP Sales and Marketing, Sandvine. "Smarter networks can bring many benefits to the end-user including increased quality of experience, personalized and tiered services and increased loyalty."

Sandvine has also won a new cable service provider located in the United States. This customer has selected Sandvine's PTS platform and its latest congestion management product. Sandvine's Congestion Management for Fairshare helps improve network efficiency and overall subscriber quality of experience with a wide range of policy options including subscriber-centric approaches, application-centric approaches or, most powerfully, combinations of both.

"Network intelligence paired with sophisticated policy controls through products such as Congestion Management for Fairshare are helping service providers across the globe create new opportunities for fairness in bandwidth allocation," said Mr. Donnelly.

With 130 customers in over 50 countries, representing over 60 million broadband subscribers, Sandvine's international growth continues to be augmented by its strategic reseller relationships.
