will be necessary for a given solution be sure to account for this additional bandwidth. The wireless

8. Will the school district supply all necessary switches?

contractor decides to add additional switches to overcome wiring distance limitations these would not be
provided by the school district and must be provided by the contractor.

Answer: Supply a switch rated for -40C. If the selected switch does not support PoE a separate power
supply UL listed for CCTV may be used to power the cameras.

cameras that require refocusing during the warranty period will be refocused without charge to the school
district.
