Key Aspects in SuperSINET

Economical Solution for High-performance Dark Fiber (6,000Km+) with 300G+ bandwidth including Trans

port Equipments (DWDM, CWDM, 3R Repeaters, Amps) and PXCs for 3 years contract will realize 90% cost reduction compared to equal bandwidth of SDHs

Flexibility for bandwidth provisioning on mixed use of OC-192 backbone operation, GbE / 10GbE / OC-48 peer-peer 　 connection and GbE based local accsess

Network management based on GMPLS will be enhanced solution for L3 integrated management

MPLS VPNs IPv6 services offering More benefit could be obtained by large scale operation
