Doubling of peering capacity

Even more bandwidth for sports broadcasts via Internet

After SwissIX has renewed their core infrastructure at the four main locations (among others colozüri.ch) and since the site interlinks now run with 100GE, we have also increased our capacity to 20Gbps regarding to the upcoming European football championship 2016 and the Olympics. The connection is realized via a so-called LAG and thereby also component failures are covered such as a defecetive SFP transceiver.

NTS goes 100G

Expanding our DWDM systems with 100G technology

Together with our supplier Deltanet we will expand our existing DWDM network with coherent 100 Gbps connections in the next few weeks.
In a first step, we will equip five data centers on our metro ring Bern-Zurich-Basel-Bern with the new interface cards.
Already 10 years ago we built our first WDM transport networks with our supplier Deltanet and we are looking forward to a continuation of this proven partnership in the 100Gbps age.
