Network Upgrade: Low-Voltage Wiring Replacement - June 28 - July 3
Starting on June 28th, ITS, in partnership with our contractor, ComNet, will perform low-voltage wiring (data & voice) replacements in the following buildings as part of our Network Upgrade project.
- Campion Hall
- Canisius Hall
- Claver Hall
- Gonzaga Hall
- Kostka Hall
- Loyola Hall
- Regis Hall
- Bannow Science Center
- Joques Hall
- Southwell
- Barnyard 21
Recommendation
If you are located in one of the affected buildings, consider working from home or utilizing other campus spaces, if possible. While Wi-Fi will remain fully operational in these buildings during the low-voltage construction, the contractors may need access to office space, conference rooms, etc, to complete the cabling work. While we understand this is impactful, this work is essential to strengthen our network infrastructure and ensure reliable connectivity.
What to Expect
- Areas Impacted: Classrooms, Conference Rooms, Dorm Rooms, Hallways, Offices, Shared Spaces.
- Duration: Wiring replacement will occur over several days, between June 28 - July 3.
- Disruptions: Contractors will require access to various areas, which may cause minor disruptions.
Next Steps
This work prepares the buildings for the network upgrade, which will involve a one-day building-wide outage later this summer. Further details, including the upgrade date, will be shared as available.
We appreciate your understanding as we improve our network infrastructure. If you have questions, contact Alex Romans, Director of Infrastructure, or John Lombardi, CTO.
