UND NetX
Elevating Connectivity Project
The UND NetX: Elevating Connectivity project is focused on enhancing the network experience for the entire community while keeping costs controlled. As critical infrastructure, the UND network supports all digital activities on campus. With the growth in student population, the number of devices brought to campus, expanded research activity, and rising costs for hardware and software to maintain a robust network, it became essential for UND to reevaluate how network services are provided and managed.
After two years of careful research and planning, UND has partnered with Boldyn, a trusted managed hosted vendor, to oversee and enhance our network. With this new partnership, UND can expect:
- Comprehensive wireless and wired network coverage
- Onsite field support staff engaging with our community to gauge network performance
- 24/7/365 Network Operations Center to monitor network performance
- New network design to support the growing needs and future growth
- Reduced operational cost
The initiative will roll out in two phases: Phase 1 will transition the wired and wireless networks in Residential Halls, while Phase 2 will focus on academic and administrative buildings.
Last summer, we successfully transitioned the residential halls to Boldyn's management, and now we are ready to begin migrating the academic and administrative buildings.
