Home Leadership Portfolio Case Studies News About Caton Technologies Case Study Bringing Superhighway Video Performance to the Back Roads of the Internet Overview It is hard to imagine today’s world without the Internet and all its associated benefits. However, it has limitations and high-quality live video transmission is one of the most challenging. As Covid-19 and the global pandemic continues to change how people work and play, video communication has become an invaluable necessity. Yet, the current Internet is not adequate to solve the problem of high quality, low latency live video distributed at scale. This is due to the fundamental limitations of underlying, present-day Internet protocols. Enter Caton Technology Group, a pioneering, next-generation IP network of transport solutions offering innovative video distribution (R2TP) and rapid file transfer (F2TP) algorithms. Over US$10M and 400,000 engineering hours have been invested in the development of Caton’s underlying technology and solutions. Caton brings to the market new protocols, combined with a global network (CatonNet) that enables superior live video transport performance, uninterrupted video quality, and up to 40% cost savings compared to other multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) virtual private networks. Challenge Caton’s original business plan was highly technical, hardware oriented, and China- centric with limited growth in narrow, video streaming market segments. As a means to unlock its growth, Caton requires liquidity, strategy, and capability to enter global markets within live video streaming and rapid file transfer segments.
