This award enables John Carroll University to improve its connection to NSFNET by re-routing and upgrading its connection to the mid-level network OARnet, the Ohio Academic Resources Network. Improved access to NSFNET provides John Carroll faculty with increased opportunity for collaboration and use of a wide range of research tools such as supercomputing and shared databases. Because of a change in OARnet's network topology, John Carroll is connecting to the SONIC (State of Ohio Network for Integrated Communications) Point-of Presence tower in Cleveland. They also are changing their protocol to TCP/IP, which is used on OARnet, NSFNET and the rest of the INTERNET. To facilitate the expected increased use of the network, the bandwidth of the data line from the school to OARnet is being increased from 9,600 bits per second to 56,000 bits per second.

这一奖项使约翰·卡罗尔大学能够通过重新路由和升级其与俄亥俄州学术资源网络OARnet的中级网络来改善其与NSFnet的连接。改善对NSFnet的访问为John Carroll教员提供了更多的合作机会，并使用了广泛的研究工具，如超级计算和共享数据库。由于OARnet网络拓扑结构的变化，约翰·卡罗尔正在连接位于克利夫兰的SONIC(俄亥俄州综合通信网络)入网点塔楼。他们还将他们的协议改为在OARnet、NSFnet和互联网的其余部分使用的TCP/IP。为了促进预期增加的网络使用量，从学校到OARnet的数据线的带宽正在从每秒9600比特增加到每秒56000比特。
