Internet Outage Schedule

December 14, 2016

The Office of Information Technology (OIT) would like the campus community to be aware that on Thursday, Dec. 22, the Merced 2020 Project construction team will relocate a primary campus network fiber connection. This fiber line, a backbone used to connect to all Internet services, requires the construction team to cut the existing line, pull the fiber out of the conduit, reroute the line and resplice to establish connectivity back to CENIC, our Internet provider.

Because the project is so complex, all campus network connectivity will be unavailable for up to six hours, starting at 2 a.m. Dec. 22.
