Description
The Coffee County School System is requesting proposals for a turnkey Telecommunications Distribution System under E-Rate guidelines for E-Rate Year 2026 Funding. The system requires a 10-GB WAN from the CCSS to all campus sites along with connectivity to the Board office.

• Service will be provided within four hours of reported problems on a 24/7 basis.
• Additional sites/schools may be added at the same quoted price.
• Sites no longer needing connectivity during the contract timeline will be disconnected at no cost to the district.
