US network picks up speed

Just like Lance Armstrong over the past few years, the university network also became faster over the past few months. Luckily we don’t have any dubious activities to declare.

Last year the decision was made to start upgrading the network of all academic buildings, as well as student residences. The project entails the upgrade of fibre connections to the central IT core.

Until recently a large part of buildings on campus were still equipped with outdated cabling which caused network connections to be slow and unresponsive. The existing network was also not geared for the growing capacity and needs of it’s users.

Therefore it was decided to standardise all buildings as soon as possible and upgrade from 1Gbit per second to 10Gbit per second bandwidth. This project forms part of the greater aim to ensure the SU network will have the ability to supply adequate bandwidth to meet growing academic demands. After the upgrade, the university will be ready for future applications and services which will potentially require higher bandwidths for optimal functioning.

Thirteen academic buildings and seven student residences have been upgraded to higher speeds. The remaining buildings and residences will be upgraded over the next few months. Upgrades will, as far as possible, be done over lunch times or after hours and departments will be notified beforehand if down times will occur.

    If the US Network is anything like Lance Armstrong, when will they be interviewed on Oprah and come clean?
