Houghton College -- Connection to the Internet

霍顿学院（Houghton College - G. Bennett）与美国国家科学基金网络（NSFNET）的联系。霍顿学院请求NSF支持其校园网络连接到NYSERnet。NYSERnet是位于纽约州的中级网络。NYSERnet将提供运营管理和信息服务，并将为霍顿学院提供每秒5.6万比特的连接到NSFNET，这是一个高速（每秒150 - 4500万比特）的国家骨干网。学院需要更强大的功能和网络速度，以便能够访问超级计算机、图书馆、进行文件传输，以及能够实现更可靠的邮件系统。学生和教师的研究将受益于这种联系。这也是学校探索创新教育资源的独特机会。

Abstract Houghton College - G. Bennett Connection to NSFNET Proposal No. NCR-9412975 Houghton College request support from NSF for connection of its campus network to NYSERnet. NYSERnet is the midlevel network located in the state of New York. NYSERnet will provide operations management and information services and it will provide Houghton College with a 56 thousand bits per second connection to the NSFNET, a high speed (1.5 - 45 million bits per second) National Backbone network. The college needs greater functionality and network speed to be able to access supercomputers, libraries, and make file transfers along with being able to implement a more reliable mail system. Students and faculty research will benefit from the link. This is also a unique opportunity for the schools to explore innovative educational resources.
