increase in the amount of $135,276.00.
Public Content
This is a request to increase bandwidth between school sites (WAN) of the network. The changes are attached. Most schools will see an
increase. And most increases are a minimum of doubled, or up to a 5 times increase. This will increase our annual cost by $135,276.00,
which equates to a monthly increase of $11,273.00. Once the school year begins it is our intent to reduce this bandwidth once we’ve
established a new baseline for need. We’ve also requested additional funds from E-Rate to help offset the costs, but approval of that is
unlikely at this time.
For Additional information please contact Eric Mitchell at 850-689-7153.
