Document Description
The project involves the upgrade and installation of broadcast communication equipment and infrastructure, including new camera stations (with both dedicated broadcast cameras and replay cameras), television reception panels and input/output panels, waterproof enclosures (junction boxes), and associated broadcast cabling and electrical conduit, at various UCLA athletic venues. Phase 1 includes infrastructure and installations at three on-campus venues and one off-campus venue (100 Constitution Ave.), plus a single mobile broadcast studio unit for use at each venue to connect to the existing fiber optics network on campus. A future second phase of Big Ten Network improvements would involve similar infrastructure and installations at four additional venues on campus, plus the construction of an approximately 3,000-square-foot central control room/production facility within an existing building.
