About this file
This document is a technical specification for fiber optics and communications infrastructure on a campus. Two 24-strand single-mode fiber backbones exist, one managed by FITS handling computer networks, VOIP, and medical systems, and another managed by the electric shop. For new IT closets or buildings, specific fiber routing requirements must be coordinated with FITS or Randy from the electric shop, including running fiber to connection points with patch panels. Additional communication infrastructure requirements include copper phone lines for patient rooms, fax machines, and RICOH fax devices, as well as cable TV trunk line connections with splitter amplifiers. Coordination with specific personnel (Boyd, Ray, FITS staff) is emphasized for detailed infrastructure planning and implementation.

Fiber Optics and Communications
There are two fiber backbones on campus, one managed by FITS and one by the electric shop. Both backbones use 24 strand single-mode fibers.
FITS’s backbone handles the computer network, VOIP and many of the medical systems. If the project needs a new IT closet, then the project is going to need fiber run to either the next upstream closet or
B136 depending on capacity, FITS should be asked early in the process as to which it is so that this can be included in the construction.
For the electric shop’s fiber, a new building is going to need fiber run from the new building to an existing connection point with patch panels at both ends of the run. Work in an existing building will probably not require new fiber but check with Randy to be sure.
Patient rooms and locations that need fax capability need copper phone lines run back to the nearest connection point. Again, you will need to get the details from FITS. The RICOH machines that are used for faxes (and there are a lot of them) need copper phone lines.
Cable TV needs a trunk line connection and then splitter amplifiers and cables into each point of use.
There is not a master cable account, so discuss with Boyd and Ray.
