[AusNOG] JASURAUS

[John Lindsay]

JASURAUS is a dinosaur.

As per http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JASURAUS <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JASURAUS>

"The upgrade ability was also hampered by the high cost which Telstra <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telstra> charged to provide transit to Perth <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perth,_Western_Australia>, and whilst the cable could have been potentially upgraded to 20 Gbit/s, such agreements would have to have agreement between all parties and especially APCN's <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APCN_(cable_system)> owners. Such agreements were not forthcoming."

Cheers,

John Lindsay
