On-Campus Connections

Students, faculty, and staff can access and exchange Ball State network-based information or data on campus from offices, labs, or residence hall rooms.

Connection to the university network provides access to academic and administrative resources including: scheduling, library search, data processing, mapping, graphics, and e-mail.

Ball State is connected to the Internet through two key service providers. Currently, these are AT&T and I-Light, a new statewide optical network. We are connected to AT&T through a DS-3 circuit and through I-Light as an optical circuit. Our total bandwidth to I-Light membership throughout the state is 1 Gbps, while our total bandwidth to the Internet at-large is 345 Mbps.
