High performance data networks are critical infrastructure for researchers and educators who rely on unimpeded access to remote instrumentation, massive data sets and distant collaborators to achieve objectives in science and engineering fields. This project builds a high-performance research network at the University of Dayton to provide unimpeded connections to other research institutions via state and national high-capacity networks. The project expands the campus network from 1Gb to 10Gb and establishes science DMZs in four science and engineering facilities across the campus, providing researchers with new capabilities. Research initiatives link researchers with colleagues and students for: (1) education and outreach initiatives at Sinclair Community College and regional high schools, (2) remote instrumentation access at The Ohio State University, (3) climate research remote processing at the Ohio Supercomputer Center, and (4) collaborative sensors research at Central State University (a historically black university). This network expansion connects the University at 10Gbps to Internet2 and OARnet's IntraOhio (both running at 100Gbps). Additionally, the University of Dayton is utilizing perfSONAR monitoring to measure and document the performance of the science DMZs.The key upgrades for this project include installing science DMZ edge hardware and upgrading distribution and access layers at the University of Dayton, and hardware upgrades for science DMZ connections at Central State University. These improvements enable our scientists and engineers to better connect, collaborate, and share science data, provide robust STEM educational outreach, contribute to high-value workforce development and create cost-effective models for sharing scarce scientific resources.

高性能数据网络是研究人员和教育工作者的关键基础设施，他们依赖于畅通无阻地访问远程仪器、大量数据集和远程合作者来实现科学和工程领域的目标。该项目在代顿大学建立了一个高性能的研究网络，通过州和国家大容量网络与其他研究机构提供畅通无阻的连接。该项目将校园网从1Gb扩展到10Gb，并在校园内的四个科学和工程设施中建立科学dmz，为研究人员提供新的能力。研究计划将研究人员与同事和学生联系起来：(1)辛克莱社区学院和地区高中的教育和推广计划，(2)俄亥俄州立大学的远程仪器访问，(3)俄亥俄超级计算机中心的气候研究远程处理，以及(4)中央州立大学（一所历史悠久的黑人大学）的协作传感器研究。该网络扩展将大学以10Gbps的速度连接到Internet2和OARnet的俄亥俄州内部（两者都以100Gbps的速度运行）。此外，代顿大学正在利用perfSONAR监测来测量和记录科学dmz的性能。这个项目的关键升级包括在Dayton大学安装科学DMZ边缘硬件和升级分发和访问层，以及在Central State University为科学DMZ连接进行硬件升级。这些改进使我们的科学家和工程师能够更好地连接、协作和共享科学数据，提供强大的STEM教育推广，促进高价值劳动力的发展，并为共享稀缺的科学资源创造具有成本效益的模式。
