We've secured around $750,000 for the project in year one. Additional funds will be requested in future years to bring on systems that did not make it into the year one plan. |

We purchased our own APC racks and will have APC NetBotz humidity and temperature sensors in them to ensure we receive the proper amount cooling.

EX3200 or 4200?
Also, what is the module that you have installed in the top two EX's?
It has what looks like indicator LEDs on the right hand side. Have not seen these modules before... |

The routers have a MIC-3D-20GE-SFP (20-Port Gigabit Ethernet MIC with SFP) module added. We will be using them for additional RJ45 ports at this time. |
