ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This service disruption is a result of a Physical Plant project that requires the relocation of IT networking equipment. IT Network Engineering will install new fiber optic cable within Randolph Hall. The installation of fiber optic cable to a new location within the building will facilitate the space necessary for Physical Plant’s upgrade of Randolph Hall’s power distribution system.
