What is SURFnet?

Development and exploitation of the Dutch
National Research Network
100 ownership SURF Foundation
Not for profit, 60 employees

SURFnet6 overview

The first nation-wide hybrid optical and packet
switching infrastructure
Based on 6000 km of SURFnet-owned managed dark
fiber, all the way to the customers premises
SURFnet6 delivers 1/10 Gbit/s IP services (native
IPv4 and IPv6) plus lightpath provisioning
Over a single transmission infrastructure
Managed via a single control plane
Hence, in an economically sound way

Advantages of lightpaths

Advantages for institutions
Lightpaths provide safe high-speed connections
(1G, 10G) with an excellent quality (low and
predictable latency, no jitter)
Lightpaths facilitate applications that dont
function optimal using the regular internet
Advantages for researchers
High bandwidth
Dedicated bandwith
Low, predictable latency
Relatively low costs
Lightpath speeds
150 Mbit/s, 600 Mbit/s, 1 Gbit/s, 10 Gbit/s
