WESTNET is one of several regional networks connecting                  geographical regions of the United States to NSFNET, the national               scientific network.  It interconnects 13 campuses in the Rocky                  Mountain region:  Arizona State University, Colorado School of                  Mines, Colorado State University, New Mexico Institute of Mining                and Technology, New Mexico State University, University of                      Arizona, University of Colorado (Boulder, Colorado Springs, and                 Denver campuses), University of Denver, University of New Mexico,               University of Wyoming, and Utah State University.                                       The network will use moderate speed lines (56,000 bits per              second) except for those connecting the University of Wyoming and               Utah State University, which will use duoplex lines (19.2 bits                  per second).  The network will be upgraded to T1 speeds (1.5                    million bits per second) as the technology becomes available and                the need apparent.                                                                      Significant cost sharing is provided by the states of Colorado          and New Mexico, with additional cost sharing to be obtained from                the other states and industry.
