By using standardized equipment and services, DoIT increases the University's ability to maintain proficiency in the procurement, installation, maintenance, and life cycle management of its networking systems and resources.

Included Services:

  • Local Area Network (LAN) Services
  • Gigabit Ethernet to the desktop (faceplate)
  • 24x7x365 monitoring
  • After-hours (24x7x365) repair response if accompanied by the departmental IT Pro
  • Central Network Services
  • Internet Protocol (IP) management
  • Domain Name Services (DNS)
  • Network monitoring and management
  • Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
  • Windows Internet Name Service (WINS)
  • Public Internet access

One-time installation charges will apply to install wire for a single data port.  The charge includes the following:

  • Cabling ($122)
  • Data jack installation - standard labor charges of $65.50 per hour apply
  • Activation of the data port (included)

Port activation charges of $11 per data port will apply to activate existing data ports.  If you are requesting activation of six or more data ports in a single request, standard labor charges of $65.50 per hour, with a one-hour minimum, will apply instead.

Port deactivations are processed at no charge.

Note: In FY22 changes were made to the way some IT costs are distributed to the capus. We've added IT costs for some our services to the MU Allocation Model. As a result of the change, all expenses included in the FY22 MU allocation model are assigned to each entity based on their percentage of expenses to the total and then that amount is deducted from their annual General Revenue Allocation. For example, if the School of Music accounts for 10% of overall expenses, they will be assigned 10% of the IT expenses and the GRA allocation is reduced accordingly. This reduction is done BEFORE the allocation is transferred to the entity.

 **Please Note: Data Network monthly charges are included in the allocation model, but activation and installation charges still apply.
