Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Village of Ruidoso (VOR) is seeking a data and voice communication provider to install a Metro Ethernet Network (MEN), and optionally a complete VOIP solution. The provider will install, setup and configure the MEN services in all sites. The provider will also install, setup and configure internet services in the Horton complex with backup internet services at the Village Hall Site. This WAN will interconnect all Village sites as listed on Appendix A. To support future applications, the proposed solution shall also accommodate Point-to-Point and Multipoint-to-Multipoint topologies. It is in the best interest of VOR that all sites are served with the proposed service with a single Proposer. No co-mingling of Proposer’s or partial installation of sites is allowed. This proposal is intended for a “turnkey” solution to be provided to VOR. Final termination of service is to be located in the demarcation (demarc) of each site. The demarc is defined as the current location of each site’s edge router or switch, typically in each site’s Main Distribution Facility (MDF) location. Proposer shall be responsible for any and all costs of delivering the proposed service to the point of demarcation (curb to demarc), including, but not limited to, any associated construction costs, such as: fiber cables, copper cables, trenching, conduit, innerduct, backfill, easements, permit allocation, rack installation, grounding, bonding, any and all electrical outlets and/or power requirements to service provider equipment including a minimum 2-hr UPS backup system. Due to future growth of Metro-Ethernet (proposed service), all sites must be fed with fiber cabling from curb to demarc. Proposer shall be responsible for software configuration and network system design changes required to provide a working data network service to all sites utilizing the proposed service.
