SINET3 is the new Japanese academic backbone network launched in April 2007 for more than 700 universities and research institutions. It has 63 edge and 12 core nodes and deploys Japan’s first 40 Gbps lines between Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka.
SINET3 emphasizes four service aspects: transfer layer, virtual private network (VPN), quality-of-service (QoS), and bandwidth on demand. It provides all services on a single network platform, and users can freely choose the best transfer layer services for their applications.
SINET3 provides bandwidth-on-demand (BoD) services as part of layer-1 services.
Users can specify the destinations, duration, bandwidth with granularity of about 150Mbps, and route option, via simple Web pages. BoD server receives path setup requests from users, calculates the appropriate routes, schedules accepted reservations, and triggers layer-1 path setup.

Saya pernah diajak mengunjungi salah satu NOC Sinet3 di Otemachi. NOC Sinet3 dikelola secara outsourcing ke NTT. Kalau peralatan isinya ya standard namun cukup diverse: ada Juniper (saya liat ada T640), Cisco, Alaxala, etc.
