EllaLink, the new 6,000km submarine cable connection that will directly link Europe and Latin America, will deliver connectivity for the BELLA Programme by providing the high capacity and low latency necessary for data-intensive research and education use.
RNP network scientist Michael Stanton represented Brazil by co-presenting a paper on connectivity in the Atlantic Ocean during the sixth edition of the WACREN Annual Conference - Research and Education Network for West and Central Africa. Organized by the academic network of Benin, in West Africa, the event took place in a virtual format between March 15th and 19th, and brought up the theme "Digital Transformation for Development".
The call for the fifth and final BELLA’s Bidding Process for Infrastructure and Telecommunications Services is open since March 9th to reinforce the RedCLARA backbone in the stretch that joins the national research and education networks (NREN) of Ecuador, Panama and Brazil.
