Network Modernization – Phase 2 § § § § Second phase in a five year project to refresh network infrastructure across the Laboratory Lots of end-of-life equipment and less than desirable network topology Goal of providing faster and more efficient networking. Goal of ubiquitous wireless inside and outside. Preparing the network for Vo. IP 14 building are being refreshed in Phase 2 We have completed about 10% of the buildings in this phase. Expected completion at the end September 2013 Go to ”Insert (View) | Header and Footer" to add your organization, sponsor, meeting name here; then, click "Apply to All" 4

OSP Modernization – Phase 2 § § Second phase in a five year project to replace the current campus outside cable plant. The current copper plant is failing. – Fire Alarm, Security, Utility services, Communications services are all starting to fail. § The current fiber plant is at capacity. – There are buildings that have no available fiber and require more. – Old mechanical splices are challenging to work with. § § § Much of the cable plant is direct buried with no conduit system. A new conduit system with extra capacity is being installed Most of the new cabling will be fiber, but very limited amounts of copper will be installed as needed. Phase 2 includes new cabling to 28 buildings. Expecting to award the bid by the end of Jan. 2013. Expected completion is the end of August 2013.
