Network Effect – Enabling Research

NLR’s network now provides the infrastructure for its 525 schools and universities and four major federal agencies to connect via Cisco TelePresence, thereby enabling an “in person” experience for researchers across the US

“NLR is the ideal platform to drive deployment of innovative collaboration tools like Cisco’s Telepresence meeting.We are excited about the opportunity to leverage anout-of-the-box solution to further engage researchersand provide them with critical network services tomake their research visions reality.”

TelePresence on NLR NLR is TelePresence Certified

- NLR has purchased and installed a Cisco Session Border Controller and a TelePresence Multipoint Switch

Cisco’s US/Canada Public Sector team is working on TelePresence Certification for the RONs connected to NLR

> 12 TelePresence units are installed in US research universities including: Stanford, UC Berkeley, UCLA, UC San Diego, Cornell, North Carolina State University, University of Washington, Georgia Tech (multiple units)

NLR and TelePresence Through NLR it is possible to get NREN

connectivity to Europe, Asia, Latin America, Middle East & Africa for future TelePresence units at Research Universities via GLIF (on a hand shake = at no cost)

NLR can be connected to other TelePresence service providers to enable inter-company (inter-community) TelePresence connectivity

TelePresence is a natural for distance learning but it has the potential to play an even larger roll in academic research collaboration

C-Wave & National Lambda Rail (NLR) Cisco has rights for up to 8x 10G waves on each NLR

segmentCisco pays for the hardware (i.e., transponders) and NLR is responsible for all other costs

Cisco makes these waves, and layer 2 service, available to NREN research projects through C-Wave (Cisco’s own network on NLR)
