  1. PAKISTANEDUCATION&RESEARCHNETWORK PERN2 – Looking into the Future

  2. An Introduction • An integral part of providing IT infrastructure to the overall education system • Launched in 2002 by Prof. Dr. Ata ur Rahman as a Minister of Science & Technology, as part of IT Action Plan of Government of Pakistan. • Collaborative effort of GoP, NTC and PTCL • Designed, Operated and Maintained by National Telecom • Managed by Higher Education Commission • Based on communication medium variants, viz. OF (light), DRS(radio), DXX(copper), VSAT(satellite)

  3. First Three Years Development (2002-05)

  4. Communication Media

  5. PERN2 Initiative A project of Higher Education Commission

  6. Proposed Action Plans • Seven (07) Point of Presences (PoPs) for the Core • Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, Hyderabad, Multan, Quetta and Peshawar. • Three (03) additional PoPs are under consideration • Faisalabad, Sialkot, Muzaffarabad • PoPs will be created at public sector universities or HEC’s regional centers. • Provisioning a pair of dark fiber for the interconnectivity of the PoPs, initially at STM-64. • A total of 125 universities/ institutions will be provided connectivity to PERN. • Last mile connectivity of the universities in major cities through gigabit metro networks and metro network connectivity to the PERN2 PoPs.

  7. Scale of Infrastructure Upgrade • Ten (10) Regional Access Giga PoPs across the country. • Gigabit Metro Ethernet rings over leased dark fiber in three (03) major cities of Pakistan. • Leased dark fiber long haul connectivity of more that 4500 Km. • More than 250 Km of Metro ring in each major city. • 10 GigE metro ring and STM-16/STM-64 for long haul connectivity. • Coverage to 90% of higher learning institutions. • Approx. 300,000 students, faculty members and researchers will be facilitated with the PERN2 services. • Three (03) data centers and a NOC will be established.
