Features of Web Accelerator [Top of this page]
Web Accelerator is the solution for Internet providers who want to provide better service to their customers. Intranet administrators can also use Web Accelerator to improve their LAN systems. Web Accelerator enables you to:
Transmit scaled-down images to reduce access time by up to 90%.
- Web Accelerator scales down images in the GIF or JPEG format and transmits those images to Internet browsers. Therefore, Web Accelerator can reduce access time by 30% to 90%.
Web Accelerator has the following features:
- Contains a high-speed engine that scales down images.
- Transmits in-line images after zooming them out to 25%.
- Transmits anchored images after zooming them out to 25% or 6.25%.
- Zooms out clickable maps by adjusting their sizes automatically.
Reduce communication cost by reducing access time.
- High telephone charges have been a bottleneck for Internet users using dial-up service. When users save access time, they also save money.
With Web Accelerator, users can access more homepages in less time, and enjoy the Internet more and more! Also, they can find the information they need so fast, that they free time to do more work.
Restore scaled-down images to their original sizes easily.
- If you want to restore an image in its original size, click the Go Original button displayed in the homepage. The image will be restored to its original size.

Use the 1/2 and 1/4 buttons for quick display.
- These buttons are displayed when anchored images are found in the homepage. If you want to have a quick look at those images, click either the 1/2 button or 1/4 button. The images will be displayed quickly. You can also easily restore your favorite images to their original sizes. The Web Accelerator is efficient and convenient.
Reduce traffic on the intranet network and speed up mobile communications.
- The Web Accelerator can be used to reduce traffic on an intranet network. Otherwise, traffic would become greater day by day. The Web Accelerator can also save communication time by transmitting less data on mobile communication networks.
Browse more text and reduce scrolling.
- Scaled-down images are suitable for mobile terminals that have a physically small monitor. The small images reduce the amount of scrolling, and allow you to view more text on each page.
Provide hassle-free service to your Internet users.
- Install the Web Accelerator at the Internet provider only. Your customers will get scaled-down images without adding any software to their browsers. All they need is a web browser. Your customers can also easily switch on and off the Web Accelerator, simply by changing the proxy for their browser.
