The Network Connectivity Program (formerly known as EzraNet) is a multi-million-dollar, 3-year initiative to upgrade network infrastructure in 49 buildings on Cornell's Ithaca campus. The project will bring Cornell University to a competitive level with peer universities. It will increase data speeds to gigabit capabilities, provide building-wide wireless coverage, offer IP-based telephony, and standardize the cable plant within buildings.
