WestLAN are pleased to announce the completion of a major IT Structured cabling project in the new Glucksman Library Building at the University of Limerick. WestLAN’s dedicated team of engineers installed over 130 Kilometers of BrandRex Leviton CAT6A cable utilizing state-of-the-art technology to provide maximum bandwidth, capacity and speed for the university’s IT network.
The New Glucksman Library now includes a range of world class innovations in book storage and retrieval, digital research, accessibility and ‘inspirational learning spaces’.
One stand out feature is the ARC (Automated Reserve Collection) – a 10 meter high book vault and robotic crane, with the capacity to store 500,000 volumes in a space 1/9th of conventional shelving, which will see UL’s historic collections, currently housed off-site, returned to campus.
