Broadband Service Update
You will be aware from MI Sheet 173/11 that a major piece of work to relocate the Norfolk Schools Internet eXchange (NSIX) Internet Service Provider (ISP) services from the Baynard House Data Centre in London, to Norfolk, was scheduled to take place between the close of business on Friday 26th August 2011 to be completed by Monday 29th August 2011.
We are pleased to announce that this work was successfully completed.
An immediate benefit for all schools connecting to the Norfolk Broadband service is an increase in Internet capacity and speed from 300Mbp/s to 1Gbp/s. Further benefits include enhanced resilience and a design that gives us greater flexibility and room to grow making sure that we can meet your demands today and into the future.
