New Campus Television ServiceITCom will be upgrading the campus television network, to include the residence halls, starting June 4, 2007. This is NOT to be confused with the current IPTV investigation trial. The campus hybrid fiber/coaxial television networks are being upgraded to provide a combination of educational, entertainment, and locally produced content. The residence halls will have a 91 channel lineup and the rest of campus will have a 53 channel lineup. The new system should be substantially complete by July 15, 2007. During the month of June and the first part of July, campus will experience several outages as we upgrade the systems. Please be patient and accept our apologies for any inconveniences this may cause. The cost for television service will increase to $16.50 per device effective July 1, 2007. If you have any questions, or would like to speak to an account manager to receive this service, please contact your ITCom service representative (763-2000 or itcom.csr@umich.edu).
