Modem Pool Recommendations,Option 1
• Reduce one Primary Rate Interface (PRI) circuit (24 lines) from each modem pool, respectively.– Advantages
• Reduce Costs ($14,630 annual savings).• Minimum service level degradation.
– Disadvantages• Expensive to reinstall, if needed.• Introduce busy signal to users (largest
impact to student and staff users).
Modem Pool Recommendations,Option 2
• Reduce PRI circuits by 14, introducing busy signal during peak hours (approx. 2-4 hrs.). – Advantages
• Reduce costs ($68,000 annual savings).– Disadvantages
• Significant busy signals during peak hours.• Increase of complaint calls to Data Center
and Network Operations Center• Increase time to diagnose network problems.• Expensive to reinstall, if needed.
