Expect to ship out to sites quickly; need shipping addresses from sites.
For initial setup, site also requires:
Long fiber cable; fiber interface to Ethernet switch
Long power cable (30m in kit); power supply.
Windows server for manager software.
Reference mobile stations: WiMAX dongles, and netbooks with WiMAX modems
Later, will require:
Server for ASN GW software (data path)
Ethernet switch
Server with VMs for OMF, OML, Login service, etc. (control path)
3) Deployment plans at Wayne State?
Waiting for decision by Clearwire; expected 1-2 weeks
4) Orders by: Temple; Drexel; BBN
Shan Lin at Temple waiting for email reply with final quote from Gregg Tome; will inform Tome
Jeff and Ken from Drexel have reference quote; still planning installation, with cable lengths; should order base station now, the order cables, power supply, etc., later.
5) Reminder: need detailed deployment plans by GEC13!
