South Euclid-Lyndhurst School District is seeking prices for fiber WAN connections linking Brush High School with district locations. - Government buyer: South Euclid-Lyndhurst School District, Ohio; no separate sub-agency or purchasing office is identified. - Scope: Six E-Rate-eligible connections from Brush High School to the District Office, Adrian Elementary, Memorial Junior High, Sunview Elementary, Rowland Elementary, and Greenview Upper Elementary. Bidders may price either 10 Gbps leased lit fiber/managed Ethernet or leased dark fiber for each connection; these are alternatives, not equipment purchases. - Dark fiber requirements: Minimum six single-mode strands (three pairs) per connection, to be lit using the District’s existing equipment. Network equipment is not being solicited. - Additional service: Price dark-fiber maintenance and operations for eligible locations only if those costs are not already included in the dark-fiber monthly recurring charges. - Southlyn: A 10 Gbps lit-fiber connection or a six-strand, single-mode dark-fiber connection, with optional dark-fiber maintenance and operations, must be priced separately. Southlyn is E-Rate-ineligible, and its costs must be excluded from eligible totals. - Term: 60-month initial contract term, with two optional one-year renewals. Renewal pricing cannot exceed the final-year initial-term rate. - OEMs and vendors: No OEM, manufacturer, or prospective service provider is named. The pricing worksheet contains blank/zero placeholders and no product part numbers. - Estimated value: Not provided; the worksheet does not contain populated prices.
