100 Gbit/s Bandwidth Network Trial
JANET is the first National Research and Education Network in the world to successfully complete a 100Gbit/s network trial. The trial was conducted over a 103 km section of fibre between JANET core network points of presence (PoPs) in London and Reading during April 2009. Further 100Gbit/s trials are envisaged as the standardisation process heads towards completion in 2010 and manufacturers develop their first commercial products.
