Network

GÉANT is the high bandwidth pan-European research and education backbone that interconnects National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) across Europe and provides worldwide connectivity through links with other regional networks.

The Network

The GÉANT network interconnects Europe’s NRENs, providing research data communication across the continent.

 

Network Operations

DANTE’s operations department handles the co-ordination and execution of GÉANT's operational service provision. The department consists of the Operations Team and the Network Operations Centre.

Global Connectivity

Research today is a global activity and GÉANT continues to extend its worldwide connectivity for the benefit of the entire European research community.

Research & Education Networks

Research networks are an essential part of many research and education activities.

Environmental
Impact

A team known informally as the "GÉANT Green team" aims to help NRENs work towards greener networks, services, policy and practice.

 

 

Campus Best Practice

Campus Best Practice aims to address key challenges for European campus networks.
