Campus Network

A campus network is proprietary set of LANs or interconnected LANs that serve an organization.  Typically, it encompasses a set of buildings near one another but can also include multiple site locations over wide areas. These buildings and site a connected by a fiber optic network known as the campus backbone.

The campus backbone connects multiple buildings or sites together to create your local area network.  Environmental and installation challenges require a robust cabling infrastructure to provide a network that is reliable, meets growing bandwidth demands and is quickly deployed.

• Scalability/future deployments - Networks are growing more complex and bandwidth demands are increasing.  There are multiple ways to scale your network for the future either through upgrading to higher transmission speeds or adding more fiber.
• Installation speed/deployment velocity - Saving time through better cable access and splicing methods can substantially impact installation time across a network deployment.
• Restoration velocity - Once unplanned network downtime occurs, your top priority is restoring service to the cable, and doing it as quickly as possible in order to minimize the impact on customers.
• Availability limitations - Fiber designs for high-performance applications may not be available in all cable designs because they may not perform well in some configurations.
