Project #5 –Roseville backbone connection to Citrus Heights for future STARNET
Description –Design and construct a fiber connection between the City of Roseville and the City of
Citrus Heights
The city has an opportunity to complete a fiber optic communications link between the Roseville
City Hall and the City of Citrus Heights existing communications network. The city needs to
design and construct approximately 3 miles of infrastructure (some of which is existing conduit) to
complete this link. When complete, Roseville will have a communications connection to the future
STARNET infrastructure and will also provide the opportunity for agencies to the north of
Roseville to install future connections to STARNET.
Benefits
o Provide infrastructure that will include Folsom in the regional communications network
that will become STARNET.
o Give agencies to the north of Roseville the opportunity to connect to the future STARNET
infrastructure.
Project #6 –Extension of Regional Transit Backbone
Description –Install the final 8 miles of fiber optic infrastructure to complete Regional Transit’s
38­mile regional network.
Sacramento Regional Transit (RT) is proposing to extend the existing communications
infrastructure along the North Line segment. This 8­mile segment of 144­strand fiber optic cable
would extend the North Line infrastructure from the Alkali Flat light rail station to the Watt/I­80
light rail station. By installing this link, RT will complete the 38­mile network of fiber optic
communications infrastructure throughout the Sacramento region. This network will give any
agency in the vicinity the ability to utilize this cable as a communications link for center­to­center
communications. This could also provide redundancy to existing communications owned by the
local agencies.
Benefits
o Completes a regional communications network.
o Provides potentially easier access by local agencies to a regional network.
