The original JANET line was used in providing more bandwidth to IoW,
and all these changes took place when the LINX came into operation -
Summer 1994.

IC have 10Mbps into SuperJANET, and whatever they can get out of it
on their 34Mbps link. (which, some might recognise, is a
characteristic of SMDS.) You can look up JANET's bandwidth into
Telehouse on some of their maps at <URL:http://www.tech.ukerna.ac.uk/>
(from memory) which, the astute readers will notice, is greater than
the 10Mbps they currently use in connecting at the LINX. (but they
also use Telehouse for connecting to DANTE/IBDNS).
