DICTS

With the refurbishment of existing buildings, construction of new buildings and unavoidable decentralizations resulting in multiple campuses, both Local Area Networks and Wide Area Networks installations is a necessity for TUK. TUK has put in place the necessary sub-units to design, install, secure and manage such an infrastructure. The ICT Systems Infrastructure unit is therefore concerned with the implementation, operation and maintenance of a scalable, reliable and secure ICT Infrastructure that effectively supports TUK academic and administrative functions through the timely transmission of voice, data and video. It ensures that data, voice/video flows efficiently, machines run reliably and Information stored securely.

The subsequent sub-units are concerned with:

• Installation and Maintenance of Local Area Networks (both wired and wireless) and Wide Area Networks to carry data, voice and video signals;
• Administration of the entire computer network to ensure that there is a reliable and secure end- to- end transmission medium/channel;
• Maintenance of the computer, network and telephony devices and equipments so that the University fraternity can get the best out of the ICT investments/assets.
• Provision of reliable internet services to staff and students of the TUK to support education, research and training.
