Appendix A is identified as governing equipment part numbers and quantities; these category figures may therefore differ from the itemized list. - Services and requirements: Stage, configure in coordination with school staff, install, integrate, test, document, and remove and dispose of replaced equipment. Existing AP cabling is in place, so no new drops are required; switches connect to an existing core switch, and firewall connections are 1 Gbps. A lift may be needed for some AP installations. Basic maintenance of internal connections is also requested, but detailed scope is not provided. - Equipment must be new and factory-sealed with original manufacturer warranties. Pricing must be itemized and identify manufacturers and part numbers. The project depends on Category 2 E-Rate funding, and quantities or scope may be reduced or canceled based on funding or school needs.
