Measure the path.
Round-trip time, packet loss, jitter and route stability help identify where network conditions affect applications.
ACME Edge appliance
ACME Headend Server
Managed network performance, deployed at your edge.
Bring ACME's managed performance layer to your site. Measure network conditions, optimize critical application traffic and select among available paths across the connectivity you already use.
$499/month base
400 concurrent optimized sessions included.
The ACME Edge platform
A compact server. A managed performance layer.
The headend server brings ACME Edge into your local network. ACME's software, monitoring and operating support connect the appliance to the wider performance platform.
Optimize critical traffic.
Identify performance-sensitive workloads and improve edge conditions before wider path selection.
Use the best available route.
Compare available routes and select according to measured application-path conditions, including standard Internet when it performs best.
The Performance Portal provides measurements and route history so you can review network conditions and path decisions.
Deploy where performance matters.
Enterprise sites
Branches, contact centers, collaboration, virtual desktops and applications that depend on remote AI.
Industrial and remote operations
A suitable network handoff for remote operations, simulation and training environments, with installation conditions reviewed during scoping.
ISP headends and distribution points
Bring managed application performance into an operator deployment, with capacity and topology scoped to its requirements.
ACME works alongside existing routers, firewalls and connectivity. Placement, routing and network access requirements are agreed during deployment planning.
Illustrated enclosure
The hardware, up close.
A compact physical home for ACME Edge. The gallery shows the network-port and service-port sides of the reference enclosure.
Processor, memory, storage and throughput are specified for your deployment.
- Reference enclosure dimensions
- 115 × 107.5 × 39 mm
- Network interfaces
- LAN and WAN ports
- Power input
- 12 V DC
- Service connections
- USB, console and display connections
These details describe the illustrated enclosure. The COM socket is a console connection, not an additional LAN port.
Deployment pricing
A clear starting point.
Headend + managed performance
$499/month base per deployment
400 concurrent optimized sessions
Optimized throughput, additional capacity, installation and service term are scoped in your proposal. Your existing connectivity and third-party network charges are separate.
- Headend / performance-node deployment
- ACME software
- Management and monitoring
- Operating support
Common questions.
Is this a one-time hardware purchase?
The $499 is the monthly base for the deployed headend/performance-node service, including software, management, monitoring and support. It is a recurring service fee, not a one-time equipment price. Equipment ownership and deployment terms are defined in your proposal.
What does 400 concurrent optimized sessions mean?
It is the included number of simultaneous optimized sessions. It is not a count of employees or subscribers, a monthly session total or the pictured device’s physical maximum. It is separate from the deployment’s agreed throughput capacity.
Will it work with our existing network?
ACME is designed to work with existing connectivity; assessment establishes deployment placement and network requirements.
Does the headend provide AI compute?
It manages the network paths to and from applications and AI destinations. Models, inference engines and GPU capacity are separately provided.
How is additional capacity priced?
Session demand, optimized throughput and number of deployments are reviewed in the proposal.
What happens after we inquire?
ACME reviews the application paths and business concerns, discusses baseline measurement and recommends an appropriate scoped next step. The inquiry is not an instant diagnosis.
Put your application paths to the test.
Tell ACME where performance is affecting your operation. We will review the deployment and discuss the evidence needed to decide the next step.
