FileSender is a simple and secure tool for quickly sending large files of up to 5 TB, which students, researchers and employees of organisations that are part of the Belnet R&E Federation can use free of charge. User figures show that FileSender is one of the top services in our range. In fact, nearly 1 million files were downloaded via FileSender last year.

As part of its new connectivity strategy, Belnet launched a large-scale public tender in 2021. This aimed at concluding a five-year framework agreement with a single contractor that will provide WAN connectivity for federal government services.

From January 2023, your institution, whether or not it is a G-Cloud member, can access Belnet FedSender thanks to Belnet's implementation of a discovery service that directs to your authentication system.
