Beginning in late 2015, BUMC IT is embarking on a multi-year project to refresh BUMC academic and administrative wired networks. As part of this project, obsolete wire and switches will be upgraded to offer ports providing Ethernet connectivity of up to 1 gigabit per second—an increase of 10 to 100 times typical BUMC capabilities currently. However, in light of recent upgrades to all BUMC wireless networks, coupled with the trend toward wireless connectivity generally, old Ethernet ports will not be replaced with new ports on a one-for-one basis. In general, our goal is to provide at least one port per office, and as-appropriate for larger facilities, by working with IT governance, support partners, and clients to optimize reconfigurations appropriately.
The following is the schedule of planned updates to the wired networking infrastructure at Boston University Medical Campus.
