Networking & Communications

The Network/Communications team manages all data, voice, wireless, network security, and cable TV services; along with the Wildcard access infrastructure on campus. Specific services include internet access, Secure Remote Access, data networking, wireless voice and data, dial tone, voice mail services, cable TV, and all network wiring and connections in the dorms and offices. From an access standpoint, the Network division ensures the cable plant (fiber or copper) is maintained and operating correctly.

The goal of Network and Communications is to keep each user connected to phone, voice mail, and data service. We strive to keep the lines of communications open from room to room and to the outside community.
