IZEGEM, Belgium -- Skyline Communications, the global leader in end-to-end, multivendor network management solutions for the satellite, HFC broadband, broadcast, and IPTV industries, will introduce DataMiner 6.5 at IBC2010 — the latest version of the company's award-winning network management system (NMS). This update significantly improves the operator's ability to manage large, complex networks by introducing innovative UI technology and by further expanding the reach of the platform down to the subscriber home. With this extended reach, DataMiner is the first NMS platform in the industry capable of providing a complete end-to-end perspective for operators.

The DataMiner Cube UI, introduced as part of DataMiner 6.5, is the industry's first interface based on user-centric design principles that enable time savings, convenience, and an overall reduction in costly errors. The Cube UI leverages the strong DataMiner data acquisition, processing, and presentation capabilities to provide a web-based, interface that enables the operator to navigate intuitively within even the most complex operational ecosystems. Among the many innovations offered by DataMiner Cube are user-definable drag and drop, intelligent searching, interactive scripting, and user-definable graphing. The system is also multi-touch-enabled for use on the latest generation of displays.

"We've designed the DataMiner Cube UI to make it simpler and more intuitive than ever before for an operator to truly own the enormous amount of data that resides within its network," said Ben Vandenberghe, Skyline's sales and marketing director. "As networks continue to grow in size and complexity operators need to be able to access and analyze the enormous amount of data quickly and accurately to make critical business decisions and keep customers happy."
