Welcome

The Office of Information Technology's (OIT) Networking and Telecommunications Services (NTS) unit provides network services to thousands of customers and locations on campus through the Gopher GigaNet. These services, which are owned, planned, and maintained by the University, connect individuals and units to the Internet and to local network resources.

The network system is comprised of 21 Cisco routers linked together via a mesh of 10-Gigabit interconnections and nearly 4000 Cisco stackable Ethernet switches. Switches are connected to the core using a minimum of 2 Gigabits of bandwidth when possible.
