South Core

As part of the TIU project a new building was constructed on the south part of campus to facilitate diverse network and telephone service paths into campus.  The infrastructure will provide significantly greater reliability in the event of a communication line cut or other disruption to one of the feeds going on or off campus.  The building was named the "South Core" building and was coupled with the "North Core" facility in the campus communications building.  This enabled greater on-campus network resiliency.  All major area distribution facility (hub sites that feed multiple campus buildings) have been interconnected to each core for greater diversity and service reliability.
