The sPHENIX project is a new collider experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) in Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). It aims to study the Quark-Gluon Plasma and cold Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) by measuring photons, jets, jet correlations, and the Upsilon family with high precision. To achieve these goals, a precise tracking system is necessary. The tracking system of the sPHENIX detector consists of the MVTX, INTT, TPC, and TPOT. INTT is a two-layer barrel silicon tracker that plays a unique role among the sPHENIX tracking detectors. It is capable of bridging the tracks of MVTX and TPC. In addition, its precise timing resolution enables INTT to associate individual tracks with events to eliminate pile-up events. The INTT barrel installation and cabling were completed in March 2023. We have since commissioned and confirmed the detector responses. The INTT status, and performance evaluated by beam and cosmic rays are described in this proceedings.
