Menlo College is a private college in Atherton, California, located midway between Silicon Valley and San Francisco. The college was depending solely on a shared, 10-megabit Ethernet Cabletron Local-Area Network (LAN) that served just four of their 13 buildings. Early in 2000, Menlo College administrators faced the need to completely overhaul the existing campus telephone and data networks in order to keep the college competitive. In spring 2000, they brought in VOICEPRO, a respected communications technology integrator based in San Ramon, California. Impressed with the technical expertise of the college's IT staff, VOICEPRO recommended a broader solution designed around AVVID (Architecture for Voice, Video, and Integrated Data), a leading IP technology developed by Cisco Systems.
