TENET (network)

International connectivity at 10 Gbit/s is provided from points of presence in London and Amsterdam via the SEACOM cable.

A second 20 Gbit/s route on the WACS cable up the West Coast provides redundant access and was obtained as an IRU by South Africa's Department of Science and Technology as part of the broader aims of SANReN and in support of bandwidth-hungry applications such as the Square Kilometer Array and MeerKAT radio telescope.

TENET operates a growing bundle of services in support of research & education in South Africa.

These include: As a founder member of the UbuntuNet Alliance for Research and Education Networking, an African confederation of research and education networks,[2] TENET is committed to improving regional connections.

TENET was connected to GÉANT in October 2004,[3] a relationship that was subsequently subsumed by the UbuntuNet Alliance.
