Document a cost breakdown and rollout plan that will assist in justifying the cost of all expenses for the entire community network for the central karoo district project to be implemented

Central Karoo is a district of Cape Town 417km Southeast of Cape Town, South Africa. Central Karoo used to be known as a busy and thriving town as it was the host of one of the main junctions of the national railway. When the railway industry was booming. almost 80% of Central Karoo's populations relied on it in one way or another. Following the complete breakdown of the South African railway system, the population of Central Karoo has been forced to go back to its original source of income, which is agriculture. Central Karoo is a poorly connected area in terms of fixed telephony and Internet connectivity. Today, 5G is being rolled out progressively in the entire district; however, the connection coverage and the quality of communication services tend to switch off and on in the middle and suffer heavy noise. Project participants Given the challenging background of the Central Karoo, how could anyone come up with the idea of establishing the first interconnected computer network in this area? You have been tasked as a team to come up with a proposal to develop the first interconnected computer network in the area to connect the entire district which has close to 3000 homes. The finance will be provided by the mayor's office to ensure that the project is sustainable to connect all network infrastructure services with all its challenges of being in a rural area. Some of the project participants include three district hospitals, one district administrative building with 28 offices servicing 200 government employees. The three-district hospitals heavily rely on the local ISP for its connection and access to data for its patients. The three district hospitals have about close to 40 wards and 10 executive offices each. The following applications have been loaded ERP and Microsoft Office on all the 200 government desktops. Some external suppliers also do have access to the government infrastructure. There has been an issue of security and trust among some of the external suppliers accessing government data. Objectives The main objective of your duty is to develop a proposal and implement a network infrastructure that will improve network access to communications in Central Karoo. The network should provide intranet and Internet access to local partners in this case the 3000 homes for the Central Karoo community and the three district hospitals. Service delivery has been a ball of contention for the community and the district would like to use your expertise to ensure that the proposed network improve the service delivery. The project must be completed and rolled out in one year. Existing computer network infrastructure servicing the administrative government building and the three hospitals in the district. A Network Operating Center (NOC) was established to host the power backup system and server room facilities. The NOC was designed to provide a place safe from dust, with good cooling capabilities for the batteries and the inverters. The NOC uses natural methods and is made from locally available materials. The building is comprised of four rooms: a battery storage room, a server room, a working space and a room for equipment storage. The battery storage room hosts seventy 200 Ah deep cycle batteries, as well as five inverters (one of them pure sine wave), two solar regulators, power stabilizers and DC and AC disconnects. The batteries are stacked vertically on a metal shelf structure for better cooling. The server space accommodates a rack unit for servers and a fan. The room has no regular windows, to avoid dust and overheating. The server room and battery room face south to improve natural cooling and to help keep the room at an appropriate temperature. The south side of the building hosts 24 solar panels in a shadow-free area on its metal roof. The roof was designed with an inclination of 20 degrees to host the panels and limit corrosion and dust. Extra efforts have been made to keep the panels easily reachable for cleaning and maintenance. The roof has also been strengthened to carry the extra load of 150200kg. Physical infrastructure: - Wireless backbone infrastructure The wireless backbone infrastructure is built using Smart Bridges multi-band access points and client units. The units are designed for service providers and enterprises to establish high performance point-to-multipoint outdoor wireless links. - Network topology in use Currently, the topology of the network is a star topology with two access points. One access point hosts a 90-degree sectoral antenna, and the other access point provides omnidirectional coverage to the surroundings. Clients that are located within the area between the dotted lines are connected to the sectoral antenna, while the remaining clients are connected to the omnidirectional antenna
