Why does UCit develop standards for the Communications infrastructure?
Standards are developed so that every UC department involved in the construction of the physical or logical network has a set of material and installation guidelines to follow. Construction standards include the physical wiring plant of existing and future uses of a building. The network standards include the network equipment, protocols, and name services that provide the community common services and capabilities throughout the campus. Adhering to these standards will result in a maintainable and dependable network for the University campus community. UCit strives to develop standards that establish reliable and scaleable communications infrastructure for the University.
