education research nren

SINET (SINET-AS) — Japan's Science Information Network, the national research

and education backbone operated by the National Institute of Informatics (NII).

What it's used for

  • Connecting Japan's universities and research institutions to each other and internationally at high bandwidth.

Notable

  • An IP here is an academic/research network address, classified education rather than commercial hosting.
  • SINET links hundreds of Japanese universities and labs; small Japanese academic ASNs commonly peer into it.

Interesting

  • SINET has long doubled as a testbed for advanced networking, carrying some of Japan's earliest high-speed research links.
