[net.lan] Help...RFP - for Broadband Co-axial Cable Plant expansion

katzman@harvard.ARPA (Cynthia Katzman) (02/08/85)

We here at Harvard are considering expanding our present Broadband
cable plant.  We are in the process of putting together
an RFP for the expansion project.  It would be most useful if we
could see what other sites have put as their technical specifications,
and the request for proposal in general.

Thanks in advance!

If you can avoid cable, how about fiber optics?  They are much nicer
to work with data wise than buying Sytek kludge-boxes and trying to
share a hunk of coax.
