UAE University’sworld-class award winning campus is comprised of more than 55 buildings making up the integrated campus with approximately 290,000 m2 of newly built, state-of-the-art teaching, residential and recreational facilities. The new campus houses one of the largest such academic full 10 Gig. networks in the region comprising of more than 445 wiring closets which connect to more than 37,000 IP ports via redundant fiber.
The UAEU-SkyNet (802.11 n wireless network) consists of about 3000 wireless access points providing a full coverage all over the campus. The ICT network design is based on full layer 3 routing from the core to access providing enhanced performance as compared to the traditional design of having layer 3 between core and distribution supported by an average contention ratio of 5:1.
