2026 Fiber Runs.pdf

This file contains a fiber infrastructure specification table for the Gordon County School System (GCSS) in Georgia related to an E-Rate cabling and core switches procurement. The document lists fiber backbone replacement runs across ten school locations, totaling 43 fiber runs with a combined length of 20,820 feet. The specifications include Ashworth Middle School (6 runs, 2,020 ft), Belwood Elementary School (3 runs, 1,420 ft), Fairmount Elementary School (3 runs, 1,580 ft), Gordon Central High School (5 runs, 2,720 ft), Red Bud Middle School (5 runs, 2,260 ft), Red Bud Elementary School (7 runs, 3,300 ft), Sonoraville Elementary School (4 runs, 1,540 ft), Sonoraville High School (2 runs, 500 ft), Tolbert Elementary School (4 runs, 1,380 ft), and W.L. Swain Elementary School (4 runs, 2,500 ft). In addition to the fiber runs, GCSS is requesting 72 Cat 6 plenum-rated cables with 24-port patch panels and associated hardware with an average length of 225 feet per cable, two Meraki C9300X-24Y core switches with five-year licensing, and two additional power supplies with installation and termination services for all components.

The fiber cable specified is 12-strand OS2 single-mode armored CMP fiberoptic cable (PDPK012AB0707-I/0/C4C5), and all installations are to include proper termination in enclosures and connection to patch panels. The procurement appears to be funded through the E-Rate program, which provides discounts on telecommunications and technology services for schools and libraries. The project involves comprehensive network infrastructure upgrades across the Gordon County School System's facilities to enhance core network capacity and reliability.
