JMNIAN - what is it?• Joint Multi-National Interoperability AssuranceNetwork (JMNIAN) is a secure ATM WAN that willconnect Test & Reference sites using the DFTSFlexible High Bandwidth Service• Points of Presence (PoPs) at test facilities– Will provide connectivity to the WAN– Have the potential to connect to other DCSA services (e.g.SATCOM)• Key features:– High bandwidth, near real-time operation– Supports concurrent trials– Supports a variety of standards/protocols– Supports data exchanges up to UK SECRETDT&R COIA
