7 Basic Issues in GN2 Project Financial Arrangements Capacity Wavelengths & Fibre Questions Research Activities

8 GÉANT GÉANT: One element of a strategy GRIDS IPv6, Optical,... All research disciplines Very demanding communities Research on networking Technology Advanced Experimental Disruptive emerging next generation Internet

9 Financial Arrangements EC support for Geant Integrated Project –Network Infrastructure –Developmental Elements Funded by the NRENS and the EC Framework Programme 6 (FP6) Extending the Range of Connections

10 EC & NREN funded 186 MEuro over 4 years (US $230M) –Starting end 2004 93 Meuro available from EC 93 MEuro payable by NRENs –assuming 50% co-funding –Based on bandwidth subscribed for

11 Relative Cost of Connectivity Compared with Number of Suppliers

12 Some Indications from Market in Europe 40Gbps becoming available Cost of Interfaces for 40Gbps v. high Multiple 10Gbps may be more flexible solution Would allow Hybrid Network –Mix of IP and non-IP –Terminate on Routers and Switches

13 Managed Wavelengths and Dark Fibre Whether to invest in dark fibre IRUs and transmission equipment/management and maintenance/repeater stations etc In terms of costs - –May not be advantage in Western Europe –Less competitive markets : more offers of dark fibre in Central and Eastern Europe

14 Some exciting possibilities Costs for 10Gbps are still reducing Additional Wavelengths will drop in price Multiple, dual-homed 10Gbps affordable in a number of locations 10Gbps Lambda possible building block Provide switched GEs to high-end users
