How we Built it - Infrastructure

The ClydeNET Infrastructure consists of a Metropolitan area element and a Non-Metropolitan area element. The Metropolitan area covers sites located within the Glasgow and Paisley conurbations, whilst the Non-Metropolitan area covers the remaining sites. Within the metropolitan area the ClydeNET infrastructure integrates the original ClydeNET network, the Glasgow Tele-college Network and the West and South West Network WeSSNET. The Metropolitan area benefits from an extensive Dark fibre communications infrastructure (supplied by THUS Plc) providing a core resilient Fibre optic ring to which each metro site connects via dual diversely routed fibre optic circuits; For additional site resilience and where economically feasible these circuits have been provided in separate diversely routed ducts. The Non-Metropolitan area benefits from high-speed and high availability managed circuits (supplied by THUS Plc) operating at bandwidths ranging from 45Mbs to 100Mbs. The only exception to this provision is the link to Barony college, which for economic and engineering reasons could only be provisioned at 4x2Mb.
