This contract provides Radford University with campus‑wide cable‑TV (RF) and digital streaming (OnStream IPTV) services, including Emergency Alert System integration and use of the university’s existing Monroe equipment. The agreement is a five‑year renewal (Aug 2024 – Jul 2029) that supersedes the original five‑year base term (2019‑2024) and a prior one‑year renewal. The vendor, Boldyn Networks Higher Ed LLC, supplies and maintains the streaming encoders, upgrades satellite blades, and retains ownership of all installed equipment while delivering 24/7 support and annual invoicing at a rate of $105,191.04 (subject to a 20 % credit for the renewal term). The university retains the right to adjust the scope of RF and streaming services during the renewal period without penalty. Key elements include:
• Annual fixed‑price service fee with a 20 % credit, netting roughly $420k over five years.
• Full ownership of equipment remains with the vendor; university provides fiber connectivity and power.
• Service coverage for 1,154 campus “units,” with EAS capability and optional channel add‑ons.
• No additional renewals after July 2029; contract terminates unless a new agreement is executed.
