Communicate at the speed of light
Lambda is the most advanced offering in terms of communication capacity and point-to-point connections, usually between two sites of the same entity.
Who is it intended for?
Institutions can join the Lambda service:
About Lambda
The investment in over 2,600 km of proprietary fibre optics enables RCTS to carry 100Gbit/s channels, providing almost limitless communications for higher education faculty and students, researchers and other users.
This service enables data transfer at 100Gbps, in an isolated and dedicated channel, thus not affecting the performance of other RCTS connectivity services.
Lambda makes it possible to establish point-to-point connections with 10 or 100Gbit/s of guaranteed capacity, very low latency and constant jitter.
Supported by an advanced transmission system, it serves 85% of the national research and higher education community.
The areas of advanced computing and data storage, particularly when applied to Medicine, Biology, Astronomy or Particle Physics, are examples of uses that can benefit from the connections provided by the Lambda service.
Terms of Use
Especially suitable for projects that require regular transfers of large amounts of data, this service is aimed at all institutions eligible to join the IP service.
If your organization is part of the academic or scientific community and is not yet connected to the RCTS Network, here's how to join and use the Lambda service.
