Using Craig as a Proof of Concept
Craig has been identified as theproof of concept site to
demonstrate the ability of Central Council of the Tlingit and
Haida
Indian Tribes of Alaska to deploy
affordable broadband as part of a
nineteen community system. Slide8
PHASE 1: Establish Video Conferencing and computer lab in each community. Slide9
PHASE 2: Establish Community building network. Slide10
PHASE 3: Deploy WiMAX/Wi-Fi to the community building via Fiber Optic Cable Slide11
PHASE 4: Deploy WiMAX/Wi-Fi to Tribal member’s homes. Slide12
PHASE 5:
Deploy WiMAX/Wi-Fi Hotspots within Craig for profit to insure sustainability of the vision of affordable broadband. Slide13
PHASE 6: Deploy mobile WiMAX/Wi-Fi to emergency services and other critical community users Slide14
PHASE 7: Establish a partnership with local exchange telephone carriers: Alaska Power and Telephone (AP&T) and Alaska Communications (ACS) and Ketchikan Public Utilities (KPU). Slide15
Phase 8: Establish Fiber Optic cables from central office to anchor tenant buildings and WiMAX tower. Slide16
