H3C Supplies Tailor Made Campus Network to Beijing Radio and Television University

Hangzhou, 19 June 2008 — H3C Technologies, one of the world’s leading IP technology and solution providers, today announced that it is building a new campus network for Beijing Radio and Television University (BRTU) based upon a 10 Gigabit Ethernet core network architecture and a Gigabit Ethernet to the desktop solution.

BRTU has 20 branch schools whose network is connected via the government’s Capital Public Information Platform (CPIP) to the core network on the main campus. To upgrade the core network, H3C is using S9512 series 10G switches together with 4-port high density 10G interface modules, creating 10G linkages to the branch network and server clusters. For the branch network, H3C is utilizing a Gigabit Ethernet to the desktop solution to improve the bandwidth of the overall network.

Addressing the common security problems that campus networks usually face, H3C is using a unified security and management platform, which can prevent Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) attacks and IP address theft.

“We’ve been dedicated to serving clients in the education industry for many years, and have developed customized solutions to build campus networks, especially metro area inter-campus ones,” said Fu Qiang, Director of Public Sector at H3C, “We are delighted to be working with BRTU and are confident to meet their requirements for a manageable, high bandwidth network which can also support IPv6.”

Thanks to its unique solutions and quality service, H3C has become a top networking vendor in the education industry, winning more than 1500 projects to build higher education campus networks, and a 80 percent market share in the education metro area sector.

Meanwhile, H3C is extending its experience and expertise to serve overseas educational customers, and has already built high performance networks for the University of Hong Kong, Japan Osaka School and Universiti Malaya.
