What We Have Learned
• Bandwidth
• Symmetry
• Neutrality
• Global Competitiveness
![Page 30: Beyond Tomorrow’s Internet University of Alaska Fairbanks March 23, 2006 Douglas Van Houweling President & CEO, Internet2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649eb25503460f94bb8f7f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Bandwidth
• The applications we use today require up to 100 megabits/second
• Today’s local infrastructure is capable of speeds above 10 megabits/second
• Special challenges exist for rural communities
![Page 31: Beyond Tomorrow’s Internet University of Alaska Fairbanks March 23, 2006 Douglas Van Houweling President & CEO, Internet2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649eb25503460f94bb8f7f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Symmetry
Collaboration and content creation
Enabling new content creation opportunities– FTP vs. BitTorrent– “Big Web” vs. Blogging– Streaming Audio vs. Podcasting– Apple iTMS video vs. Grouper.com
• Opens up distributed enterprise
![Page 32: Beyond Tomorrow’s Internet University of Alaska Fairbanks March 23, 2006 Douglas Van Houweling President & CEO, Internet2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649eb25503460f94bb8f7f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Network Neutrality
• Today’s technology allows high bandwidth to the home and small business– Internet2 experience: Simple and
inexpensive, not complex and expensive!
• Innovation
• Critical for higher education
![Page 33: Beyond Tomorrow’s Internet University of Alaska Fairbanks March 23, 2006 Douglas Van Houweling President & CEO, Internet2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649eb25503460f94bb8f7f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Global Competitiveness
• Other nations are out-investing us and doing it with a national strategy
• If the US doesn’t invest, we will be followers, not leaders
• Our geographic diversity requires investment to harness the productivity of all our people
![Page 34: Beyond Tomorrow’s Internet University of Alaska Fairbanks March 23, 2006 Douglas Van Houweling President & CEO, Internet2](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062518/56649eb25503460f94bb8f7f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Owning the infrastructure• Campus, regional and national networks
moving away from buying telecommunications services to “owning” the assets– Campus – laying fiber on campus and between
campuses in metro area– Regional networks – buying, laying and long-term
leasing “dark” fiber to build networks– National – National Lambda Rail 20-year IRU on
dark fiber; lit with NLR-owned equipment

The Future for Alaska• Extend fiber-based networking to Alaska
higher education– Work with government & industry
• Deploy higher bandwidth connectivity intra-state– New technologies will be required– An opportunity for Alaskan leadership globally
• Ensure that the commercial network is capable of real broadband
