Re: [802SEC] +++EC Email Ballot+++ Allocation of Funds for the Acquisition of Wireless Access Points for Plenary Meeting Network Support



Title: Message

Matt, 

 

Originally, we had budgeted the price of all 44 at the Cisco discount price of $150 each. 

 

Unfortunately they could only provide 24 for us at that price, so we have to purchase the remainder at the web price $700 (I actually now have a quote at $567 each from LANcity).  

 

The units are the Cisco AIR-AP1231G-A-K9 units which are fully manageable and do 802.11a/b&g that IDEAL has recommended we purchase for our high density configurations. 

 

Thanx for your support. 

 

Thanx,  Buzz

Guys,

 

I'm not objecting, but just so I understand....

 

The original cost was $7500, and the new cost is $17500.  Are we saying that we originally under estimated the cost of the equipment?

 

Out of curiosity, is there a specific type of AP we are buying at $700 each?

 

Thanks,

 

Mat

Dear EC Members,

This is a 10 day email ballot to make a determination on the below motion to allocate additional funds for equipment purchase. 

 

The ballot opens 8PM EDT 5May 2004 and closes 8PM EDT 15May 2004.

 Regards,

 --Paul Nikolich

 

 

Motion: 

Whereas the 802 EC had approved $7,500 for acquisition of 44 Wireless Access Points (WAPs) at the closing EC meeting in Orlando; and

Whereas Cisco Systems has now generously agreed to provide 24 of those WAPs to IEEE 802 for a substantially discounted net value of $3500; and

Whereas that leaves us with the need to acquire 20 additional WAPs on the retail market at an estimated $700 each (total = $14K); and

Whereas we therefore need to allocate an additional $10K to complete the acquisition of the needed equipment in time for our Portland plenary session;

Therefore be it resolved that:  the IEEE 802 Executive Committee approves expenditure of up to an additional $10K for Acquisition of Wireless Access Points for Plenary Meeting Network Support (total of $17,500 for the 44 WAPs). 


Moved:    Rigsbee       Seconded:  Heile
