AirZip Accelerator is an advanced web server filter function that uses AirZip's patented AZV compression to optimize image files, speeding the delivery of web pages from web servers to web clients over dialup or wireless connections, and improving performance by up to 800%. AirZip Accelerator intercepts incoming http image requests from web clients, retrieves the requested images, and returns an optimized image to the web client. Accelerator works with or without AirZip Accelerator software installed on the client.
