Coppin State University Enhances Campus Network with C1's Technological Innovations

The network upgrade not only included the installation of new data center switches but also targeted campus core, edge, and smaller 'closet' switches situated in classrooms designated as smart spaces—spaces designed to facilitate better learning through technology integration.

C1's professional services team played a pivotal role during this transition by implementing Extreme Networks Fabric technology, which encompasses the ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine. This cutting-edge solution provides automated configuration and monitoring of systems, significantly reducing the time spent on manual administrative processes like configuration backup and switch management by 50-60%. This efficiency allows campus personnel to focus more on academic needs rather than technical difficulties.

Reflecting on this collaborative project, Josh Mustard, EVP of Managed Services at C1, expressed admiration for Coppin State University's commitment to innovation and operational excellence. “Coppin State's proactive leadership is a model for higher educational institutions, paving the way for enhanced educational experiences and future growth. Their dedication to modernization inspires us at C1,” he remarked.

Established in 1900, Coppin State University prides itself on serving a diverse, multicultural, and multigenerational student population, fostering leadership and community engagement. Through strategic partnerships like the one with C1, the university continues to capitalize on technology not only to enhance the learning experience but to ensure its legacy of excellence endures well into the future.

As Coppin State University moves forward with this revitalized network infrastructure, it sends a clear message to its community and prospective students: it is not merely a place of learning but a catalyst for change and innovation in education. In collaboration with C1, it is prepared to meet the demands of modern education and provide its students with the tools they need to succeed in an increasingly digital world.
