Samsung SDS won a project to overhaul Seoul National University’s campus network to support large-scale AI research and move the university toward an AI-native campus. The network will cover 243 buildings and about 50,000 students, faculty members and staff. The upgraded system will offer speeds of up to 800 gigabits per second, with added security segmentation and automation. It is intended to improve connectivity for classes, labs and libraries while helping researchers, professors and IT staff handle AI-related work more efficiently.

Seoul National University is preparing to overhaul its campus network in a project designed to support large-scale artificial intelligence (AI) research and move the university toward an AI-native campus.
Samsung SDS said it won the project to transform the university’s network platform, covering 243 buildings and serving about 50,000 students, faculty members and staff.
The new infrastructure will provide network speeds of up to 800 gigabits per second, allowing large volumes of data used in AI research and education to move more quickly across the campus.
