    Short description of the contract or purchase(s)

    Galway Mayo Institute of Technology (GMIT) would like to establish a framework

    agreement with a single operator for the supply, installation and maintenance of

    network equipment, including wireless and IP telephony, for a duration of 4

    years. The initial contract will be for 12 months with an option to award further

    contracts within the 4 year period.

    GMIT’s network infrastructure comprises a number of Switched Ethernet

    Networks on four campuses, which are networked to the Dublin Road Campus.

    Each campus has a switched gigabit Ethernet backbone and is based on the

    end-to-end use of Cisco architecture and technologies. The active network

    consists of approximately 100 devices (switches, routers, firewalls etc.) and

    provides the infrastructure for wireless and IP telephony services and also

    provides network connectivity for in excess of 2400 wired devices and a large

    wireless user community.

    Over the duration of this framework agreement GMIT is proposing to replace a

    number of network devices such as edge switches, Layer Three (L3) campus

    switches, firewalls and to further expand wireless and IP telephony services

    across all campuses.
