Assures 2000+ devices and workstations  are connected to the Wide Area Switched Network. The downtown campus buildings, including Information Systems, City Hall, Warren Hood, Fire Headquarters, Police Headquarters, Planetarium, and MetroCenter are connected via single mode fiber running gigabit ethernet.
