The link on dark fiber provided by the Brazilian academic network RNP to RedCLARA, is already active and providing greater service availability to Argentina and Uruguay.

This new link, whose equipments were also donated by RNP, connects Buenos Aires (Argentina) and Porto Alegre (Brazil) with a 10 Gbps lambda equipped with 8 Ethernet channels of 1 Gbps. From Porto Alegre to Sao Paulo, RNP provides a dedicated channel of 1Gbps.

The project of establishing this link began in 2009 and is a joint effort of RNP, Level3 and RedCLARA, with PADTEC equipment.

The link is very important as it gives greater service availability to Argentina and Uruguay and improves service latency, reducing the data transfer time in almost 50%. With this new optical system RedCLARA can increase bandwidths in an easier way and with lower costs.
