Distributed Antenna System

Project Objectives The County has established the following Project objectives in connection with the neutral host DAS solution: A new and fully functional turnkey managed neutral host DAS network. An experienced, responsive, and responsible Proposer/Operator with total capacity to manage all ongoing operations, guaranteeing a seamless transition between existing DAS and current Operator to the new DAS and provide purposeful and sustained Project maintenance for the entirety of the resultant Agreements term. The Successful Proposer/Operator shall be able to provide outstanding cellular service availability to all various Carriers to support the air traveling public, airline carrier tenants, other tenants, as well as MIA operations. A cellular service improvement over the existing DAS network to all traveling and various Airport customers, regardless of their service carrier. Service Requirements The Detailed Scope of Work and Technical Specifications for the Project are attached hereto as Appendix A, as well as incorporated within the Scope of Services herein and the resultant operating and use agreement thereof. The Successful Proposer shall be bound to the effective delivery of the Scope of Services and Technical Specifications by: Providing a turnkey project including but not limited to all necessary equipment, materials, supplies, and labor to finance, design, build, procure, implement, manage, and effectively operate and maintain the campus' vast carrier-grade neutral host New DAS for the provision of enhanced commercial wireless Cellular coverage at MIA in defined areas of the Airport. Work closely during the Transition Period to ensure a seamless handoff with no interruption of services of the existing network and customers. The Operator will not be entitled to any revenue generated from the Existing DAS network during this period, as that will remain the sole right of the Current Operator. Assuming operations of the Existing DAS network upon the Commencement Date. The License Agreement with the Current Operator will terminate upon the Commencement Date. The Operator/ Successful Proposer shall be solely responsible for revenue generation upon the Commencement Date. Design, install, and commission the New DAS network in accordance with Appendix A - Scope of Services and Technical Specifications for the Project. Proposers shall reference Appendix B MIA DAS Fiber Distribution when developing, designing, routing, capacity planning, and integration of any existing fiber infrastructure. Once the New DAS is implemented, any existing legacy in-building systems, repeaters, bi-directional amplifiers, small cells or standalone WSP systems for providing Service within the New DAS Coverage Areas as defined in Appendix A will be decommissioned upon the neutral host New DAS solution going live. Legacy macro cell sites for providing Wireless Services solely outside of New DAS coverage area shall continue to operate upon the New DAS going live, provided that they do not bleed into DAS Coverage Areas. Any entity operating legacy macro cell sites must engage in an agreement with the Operator to deliver services in DAS Coverage Areas via the New DAS. Enhance Wireless Services coverage and quality for all WSPs in existing terminals (public and non-public access areas), concourses, various MIA operation facilities and exterior areas as required in the Appendix A Detailed Scope of Services and Technical Specifications. Limit harmful interference signals as well as ensure interference is not created between the Existing DAS or New DAS networks and existing WSP macro networks in and around the Airport, and FAA or tenant operational radio systems. Work closely during the Transition Period to ensure a seamless handoff with no interruption of services of the existing network and customers. The Licensee will not be entitled to any revenue generated from the Existing DAS network during this period, as that will remain the sole right of the Current Licensee (T-Mobile). Business Objectives In connection with this neutral host DAS solution, the County has established the following business objectives: Implement a New DAS that provides world-class cellular service and a broad range of current and future technologies (i.e., 4G LTE, 5G, etc.) to hundreds and thousands of passengers daily at the Airport. Make cellular service improvements for all Airport customers regardless of the WSP to which they subscribe. Provide adequate coverage and capacity to meet the future voice and data needs of customers. Maintain the Airports competitive position in the industry by providing next-generation connectivity to our customers.
