Campus Backbone Network

A campus network is a proprietary set of LANs or interconnected LANs that serve an organization. Typically, the campus backbone encompasses a set of buildings near one another but the LAN backbone can also include multiple site locations over wide areas.

Corning’s Everon™ Solutions for the campus backbone provide a complete transport infrastructure for connectivity across campus environments. Environmental and installation challenges require a robust cabling infrastructure to provide a campus network that is reliable, meets growing bandwidth demands, and is deployed quick. Everon™ Solutions is built on your trusted optical backbone for outside plant, so it’s easy to integrate into your infrastructure and evolve as your needs grow.

To better understand how to determine fiber types and fiber counts for your campus backbone, Corning provides a whitepaper.

• Scalability/future deployments - Networks are growing more complex and bandwidth demands are increasing. Everon Network Solutions are designed to scale, providing you a simple, cost-effective way to get the capability you need, at any size.
• Installation speed/deployment velocity - Everon Solutions can provide up to 30% total savings on materials and up to 50% savings on future upgrades. 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.
