We maintain resilient and redundant connections to the Internet through ENA.

This is what allows you to make and receive phone calls to and from the rest of the world. We maintain four PRI circuits and over one thousand public phone numbers for the district.

All of our buildings are connected via our own optical fiber ring circling the city. This fiber plant is a joint endeavor between Oak Ridge Schools, the City of Oak Ridge Electric Department and the City of Oak Ridge. Within the district, the fiber supports multiple 10-Gbps and 1-Gbps connections per school to our data center.
