DISCUSSION In support of City operations, voice and data communications are provided to all City service sites. This requires an extensive cabling infrastructure. Cabling services are needed to support changes, additions and moves at and between the City sites. This cabling work ensures that all City offices and work locations remain connected and benefit from new information technology as it becomes available. The City employs outside vendors to perform needed cabling services. The City has standardized its cabling infrastructure with Avaya Systimax cabling. This was selected for its durability and flexibility. When installed by a certified cabling vendor, the product has a 20-year warranty. Use of this reliable product has resulted in very low cable maintenance costs for the City. The cabling vendorjs who provides such services to the City of Santa Ana must meet strict manufacturer certifications. In September of 2004, the City Council approved a three-year agreement with PACIFIC COAST CABLING, with provision for two, one-year renewals, to provide cabling services and related equipment. This will be the second and final amendment to the agreement. 250-1 Amendment To Agreement with Pacific Coast Cabling August 18, 2008 Page 2 FISCAL IMPACT Funds are budgeted and are available in the FY 08-09 Communication Services account for contractual services (account no. 102-171-6291).
