NORDUnet expands network footprint

NORDUnet expands network footprint

NORDUnet’s global network has been expanded with stronger connections across the North Atlantic reflecting the capacity build-up in the Advanced North Atlantic collaboration, now comprising seven partners and a capacity of 740 Gbit/s.

Also, we’re preparing new connections across US and Canada. And the first direct NORDUnet connection to Asia is on its way: A dedicated line to the Karolinska research hub in Hong Kong. Last not least we’re preparing a new connection across the Baltic Sea from Helsinki to Hamburg.
