Network access for Chapman Residents
Ethernet and Wireless
Ethernet
Every residence hall room will be equipped with both 2 voice (telephones) and 2 data (Ethernet) jacks in rooms with 2 occupants or 1 voice and 3 data in rooms with 3 occupants. In rooms with 2 occupants, the top 2 ports are for voice and the bottom 2 ports are for data. In rooms with 3 occupants, the top right port is for voice and the top left and bottom 2 ports are for data. The voice cable is a standard phone connection or a RJ-11 cable. The data port uses an Ethernet or RJ-45 cable. The 2 types of face plates you will find in your room are shown below. When connected, there should be blinking lights on your computer at the Ethernet port.
 
V = Voice port D = Data port (Ethernet) and W = Chapman’s wireless port only (Do NOT use or remove this cable)
