  • Ethernet network points in the Innovation Centre or in designated offices on the main campus
  • Mail services to designated email addresses within the "tcd.ie" domain

4. Charges

Each network point will be invoiced at €250 per annum and a further charge of €250 will be made for the installation or connection of a network point on a once-off basis. The charges include three email addresses, one network point and up to 10MB Web space. There may be some discrepancies in the costs charged for services and those allocated by IS Services due to the times that prices are set and the year to year variation in Unit Costs.

IS Services reserve the right to charge for network usage, this charge will be based on the number of bytes transferred in and out of College. IS Services will negotiate with such Campus Companies as have been identified as using large amounts of network bandwidth before levying such charges.
