The following college districts' circuits are currently scheduled for upgrade to 10GB or new 1GB circuits for center locations or replacement of end-of-life (EOL) routers. This project plan is not static and may change depending on new requests, circuit outage and diversity issues, new buildings and/or center locations, technology upgrades, etc. The schedule below reflects the month that the college district evaluation meeting occurred and approved the network topology map, or the month of finalization of the plan and order of the circuit, or the scheduled month for router replacements. For more information on CENIC and the Broadband Infrastructure Upgrade project, check out the CENIC Public Documentation page.

1 Reprioritized circuits have been added to the original Planned Prioritized Circuits totals.

2 Includes all reprioritized and new circuit requests as noted above.

3 Implementations typically take 3-9 months or longer in some cases depending on project needs and are largely dependent on collaboration between the telecommunications carrier(s), CENIC’s PMs and engineers, sometimes local government (permits), and the college/district purchasing and installing or connecting equipment, then migrating and testing circuits. CCCTC and CENIC PMs regularly review circuits in this status and reach out to the carriers and colleges/districts as needed to keep things moving.

4 Circuit cancellations are based on college/district requests or due to “No Bid” from telecommunications carriers. Note that these are deducted from the “Planned Prioritized Circuit” totals above and are not cumulative for each quarter, only the number of circuits canceled within a specific quarter are counted.

5 Circuits rescheduled for the following fiscal year at the colleges' request AND deducted from the “Planned Prioritized Circuit” totals above.
