Worlds first transatlantic 155Mbit native IP service

On Monday 23 September 1996 00:15 UTC,

Was the worlds first transatlantic 155Mbit native IP service brought into operation by Sprint/USA and Tele2/Sweden.

The circuit which is part of SprintLink and ICMnet runs between the NY-NAP in Pennsauken, NJ, USA and Tele2 in Sweden and uses Cisco packet-over-sonet/sdh technology. (Native IP over SDH)

In 1995 the same team from Sprint and Tele2 brought up the worlds first transatlantic E3 service between the same endpoints.

For more information;

Sprint: Tricia Schibler, +1 703 904 2042, <tricia.schibler@qm.sprintcorp.com> Tele2: Olle Wallner, +46 8 5626 4058, <wallner@swip.net>
