All emailed questions should reference this Form 470 number in the subject line of the email. Noblesville Schools seeks Internet Access and Data Transmission Services delivered over two connections to the District WAN head ends: one to the Educational Service Center (18025 River Road, Noblesville, IN) and one to Noblesville High School (18111 Cumberland Road, Noblesville, IN). We seek symmetrical bandwidth at 4+/- Gbps to each head end scalable to 20+/- Gbps each beginning July 1, 2027. The service request above lists a minimum and maximum capacity that is different from the request in the RFP. This is due to the limited dropdown options.
