Fiber Backbone at The Stony Brook School
The Stony Brook School is a college preparatory academy, grades seven through twelve, located on a 40 acre campus in Stony Brook, New York.
While the Stony Brook School had ample computer facilities for students and administration, they were located in several Local Area Networks (LANS) dispersed over the campus. One LAN could not communicate with another nor could one building connect to another.
After careful consideration and planning a fiber backbone linking all buildings was proposed. All LANS were then linked together with a CISCO 5505 switch. Stafford completed the project by installing one fiber backbone in all major buildings, which then connects to the campus wide backbone.
With only a two-week period between the end of the spring semester and the beginning of the summer session Stafford personnel worked double time to ensure completion of the project. During that time you could find most of the Stafford team either in a trench, on a bobcat, or at the controls of a backhoe.
With interconnectivity established between LANs and all major buildings, the LANs were updated to 100 Mbit Switched Ethernet. New file servers and many new workstations were also added.
The Stony Brook School now has a state-of-the-art campus backbone supporting multiple VLANs. With all major administrative and classroom buildings connected to the backbone, additional buildings and dorms will have the ability to be added immediately.
State of the art computer systems and the know how to install them makes us a leader in the technology field. Call us with your requirements, lets see if we can work together to improve your business flow.
