1. 1 IEEAF Update March 7, 2001 Donald R. Riley Chair, IEEAF Vice President and CIO University of Maryland, College Park

2. 2 IEEAF Vision "Non Nobis Solo" (Not by ourselves alone) We share a vision intended to accelerate the global growth of Internet2 to achieve "universal educational access” such that it: Enables and stimulates the rapid expansion of educational collaboration in many forms between and among teaching and learning institutions around the world. Cultivates and promotes practical solutions to delivering scalable, universally available and equitable means of access to suitable bandwidth and necessary network resources in support of these collaborations.

3. 3 IEEAF Objectivtes Act to insure enhance educational access to bandwidth for educational institutions and their academic, research and services/outreach needs. Promote Partnerships with government/private entities/ educational institutions to distribute education content across networks, nations,and on a truly global basis Promote and/or operate a low cost reliable repository of access and network resources and information to achieve these capabilities for educational purpose Perform Asset Management for the Foundation, its members and associates on a global basis for educational purposes "Non Nobis Solo" (Not by ourselves alone)

4. 4 IEEAF Strategies To achieve the vision of IEEAF, we intend to create frameworks and alliances between University and other educational leadership groups, industry and political/governmental leaders. Methods of helping IEEAF include donations of physical facilities (co-location and riser space), equipment, licenses to "rights of way","dark fiber" or conduits at selected points of build-out of the US and global fiber-optical network, or “wave- lengths. Such donations will be a principal means of connectivity and linkage for educational institutions to conduct teaching and learning. "Non Nobis Solo" (Not by ourselves alone)

5. 5 GEO builds carrier hotel buildings and brings together multiple parties -- “where the wet meets the dry”. GEO - The Catalyst Government SubmarineFiber TerrestialFiber

6. 6 GEO builds carrier hotel buildings and supports the IEEA Foundation goals which include helping to solve the digital divide. GEO - The Catalyst Government SubmarineFiber TerrestialFiber + Universities

7. 7 CENIC-GEO MOU Ed/GEO will donate real estate 15K sq.ft. in each of two new International carrier hotels 200 sq.ft. in each of other facilities Ed/GEO will try to get others (wet/dry/equipment/etc.) to donate as part of his business negotiations

24. Detailed view of carrier opportunities captured by VA/MD economic development initiatives Existing network traffic path used by most carriers from DC to Atlanta Proposed VA “e58” and “e13” Telecommunications Development Zones. Two new submarine cable landing sites. Possible telecom development zone. New University of MD College Park Carrier Hotel jointly developed by GEO and the U of MD. Purple line is fiber connection to intern’l MAE East Internet 2 site at Hagerstown, MD. Preston Lane Bridge Chesapeake Bay Bridge New VA cable landing and Carrier Hotel jointly developed by GEO and the State of VA.

25. Detailed view of carrier opportunities captured by proposed VA/Kentucky economic development initiatives Continuation of proposed VA telecom development zone. Suggested Kentucky telecom development zone. Existing network traffic paths used by many carriers from north to south. ? Extend Kentucky zone west to the extent necessary to meet carrier north-south routes.

26. Carrier Network Benefits from the proposed VA/MD Economic Development Initiatives DC to Atlanta carrier traffic corridor Atlanta to Chicago/ Detroit carrier traffic corridor DC to points west carrier traffic corridor Red solid line = carrier opportunity for route diversity/redundancy for traffic going south from DC.(blue line) while, at the same time, collecting international traffic at two submarine cable landing sites. Two new submarine cable landing sites. Kentucky Virginia New and/or diverse/redundant routing for east-west / north south telecom traffic flows. Opportunity to split rings. DC Red lines = New network paths that result from the VA/MD/ Kentucky communications development zones. Example of possible carrier interest might be Level 3. Discussion with Level 3 shows possible interest in splitting their large DC to Atlanta to Chicago to DC ring.
