K-20 Education NetworkHigh Bandwidth Connections

Presenter

Susan Tenkhoff, K-20 Education Network

Purpose of Appearance

Project Status Report.

Background

K-20 has been providing high bandwidth access to an increasing number of K-20 locations to meet the evolving bandwidth needs of K-20 subscribers. While an individual T1 provides 1.5 megabits per second (Mbps) of data transmission, these fiber connections provide from 10 - 100 Mbps of data transmission. This technology enables greater usage of evolving applications such as streaming video, web casting and video-to-the-desktop, with much lower per-megabit cost than T1 connections.

K-20 continues to work with telecommunications carriers, Public Utility Districts, and local governments, to provide these connections to our sites, and has recently released a procurement to provision these services for 65 new sites, in addition to the 143 sites currently served with this technology. We anticipate having over 200 sites connected to the backbone via fiber connections within the next six months.

The following identifies the current status of fiber connections in K-20:
