For Your Information – from IT Dept.

Good morning,

This notice is for staff/faculty only.

On Thursday morning China Telecom will be doing some work on the fiber-optic cable outside the school which means that they will have to shut down our connection on that line, temporarily. We have negotiated with them for this outage to occur before working hours from 6-7am. Knowing that the work could go longer, we have taken steps to try and ensure that there will be no disruption to educational technology during this work by making some adjustments to our other line. You do not need to do anything, as our IT team will be handling it all behind the scenes. And while this is purely FYI, nothing is ever certain so we would like you to know if something does go awry. The main things that will be affected during this 6-7am window are the following:

  • Phone lines
  • Local China Telecom lines

Thank you for your patience and understanding while these upgrades take place.

Joe and the IT Team
