This brief outlines a practical approach to managing video traffic—the largest driver of network demand—by controlling streaming resolutions and bitrates. The solution allows providers to enforce resolution caps, optimize delivery based on device type, and manage heavy usage during peak periods. It supports flexible service models, including premium plans with higher quality guarantees and unlimited plans with controlled resolutions. By intelligently shaping video traffic, providers can reduce congestion, improve QoE for more users, and extend network capacity without significant investment. This approach also enables better alignment between service offerings, customer expectations, and operational costs.
