There is a memo of understanding between UW System and WiscNet with appropriate service level agreements. The BadgerNet ATM infrastructure will carry a comprehensive compressed video service. The heart is the WiscNet backbone, which is BadgerNet with WiscNet services on it. It's also possible to bridge to the public switched network at a campus instead of centrally. If someone is doing a video class they will use the new WiscNet II video service.
Costs are still unknown but they are being covered for now without any surcharges.
There may be some basic level of service that will be free. The testing of the video service is still waiting on the ATM T1 services to reach the UW Colleges in the January time frame. Then the bridge at UW-Extension will be reconfigured. The K-12s are already asking DOA for this technology now. The technical colleges are also looking for video service.
