Campus Network Infrastructure Roadmap
This page provides a strategic synthesis of the refined metrics for Goal 5B4 of the Transformation 2030 plan, focusing on the systematic modernization of SJSU’s IT infrastructure. The objective is to ensure the university maintains a resilient technological foundation capable of supporting its mission of teaching, learning, and R1 research.
Wi-Fi Access Point Deployment Matrix
This matrix outlines the rollout of Wi-Fi infrastructure. To maintain alignment with official Transformation 2030 Goal 5B4 metrics, the core strategic target is set at 2,000 access points (APs) for State-owned buildings, with supplemental deployments planned for auxiliary facilities to prevent a campus-wide digital divide.
| Fiscal Year | Target Quantity (APs) | Deployment Location | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25-26 | 800 | Auxiliary Buildings - Housing CVB, CVA, Joe West, SVP, SV2 | Complete |
| 26-27 | 1800 | State-owned Buildings | In Progress |
| 27-28 | 500 | Auxiliary Buildings | Planned |
| 28-29 | Steady State | Main Campus | Planned |
| 29-30 | Steady State | Main Campus | Planned |
Network Core & Switching Infrastructure Matrix
The strategic objective for Goal 5B4 is the replacement of 300 Core switches. As part of the "Reconciled Asset Targets," core state upgrades are prioritized to ensure core reliability, while auxiliary and departmental switches (such as those in Engineering) are tracked as supplemental requirements.
| Fiscal Year | Infrastructure Type | Quantity | Deployment Location | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25-26 | Firewalls | 2 | Core Data Center | Completed |
| 25-26 | Switches | 18 | Engineering | Completed |
| 26-27 | Switches | 50 | State-owned Buildings | Planned |
| 26-27 | Switches | 25 | Auxiliary Buildings | Planned |
| 27-28 | Switches | 200 | State-owned Buildings | Planned |
| 27-28 | Switches | 100 | Auxiliary Buildings | Planned |
Campus Cabling Modernization Matrix
The modernization of campus cabling is essential to support high-speed network backbone and fiber circuits connecting the main campus and satellite facilities. While the current roadmap plans for 21 total building upgrades, the primary strategic metric for Goal 5B4 success is the completion of the first 10 buildings.
| Fiscal Year | Metric Target | Deployment Location | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25-26 | Internal Inventory | San Jose Campus / Moss Landing | Completed |
| 26-27 | Formal Cabling Plan | San Jose Campus / Moss Landing | In Progress |
| 27-28 | Upgrade 7 Buildings | Main SJSU Facilities / Moss Landing | Planned |
| 28-29 | Upgrade 7 Buildings | Main SJSU Facilities | Planned |
| 29-30 | Upgrade 7 Buildings | Main SJSU Facilities | Planned |
