The Site is due to be handed over during July 2017. The new building will interlace with the existing building and infrastructure. In order to maintain a single wireless network across the site; the College is seeking to purchase a number of Wireless Access Points which are compatible with the existing network.

Edit Date 25 November 2016 @ 13:00 ### Clarification Question added - Why do you only require 20 mounting kits for 71 AP's? Due to the intended locations of the WAPs, all but 20 will be installed on suspended ceilings. Therefore we believe only 20 flat mounts will be required. However, if an alternative solution to the Aruba is offered which does not include the integrated ceiling mount then these should be added as an optional extra. ### Edit Date 28 November 2016 @ 14:55 Further clarifications added in document titled "RFQ046- Clarification Question 28 November 2016" ### Edit Date 02 December 2016 @ 15:15 Due to a number of suppliers who had expressed an interest in the opportunity being unable to meet the short turn-around time, the opportunity has been extended for a further week to 09 December 2016 @ mid-day.
