The basic features
The Lambda service operates nationally and internationally through GÉANT and GLIF, offering users full control and flexibility at higher layers for advanced applications. Unlike classic IP services, it uses optical-electrical-optical (OEO) conversion for interconnecting optical segments.
Key features:
- Advanced services to customers in the CESNET3 infrastructure using high-speed wavelength multiplexing (DWDM).
- Interconnected customer sites across multiple NRENs via GÉANT’s pan-European and cross-border dark fibre networks.
- High reliability of the Lambda service through full optical backup capabilities for connected sites.
