Procurement for Very High Bandwidth Global Internet Transit Service

In order to extend the reach of facilities provided to its users, JANET(UK) has established access from JANET to the global Internet.

JANET(UK) wishes to procure a global transit supply that is resilient both in terms of supplier and location of connection into JANET. JANET(UK) is therefore seeking to contract separately with two suppliers. Each supplier will provide transit capacity at each of JANET(UK)’s two Points of Presence in London (Telehouse North and Telecity Harbour Exchange).
