Brief• Investigate nationally ubiquitous wireless
access to the HEAnet network for all HEAnet clients.
• Identify all potential options• Identify & Investigate the most feasible options• Recommend a Strategy

Some Key Findings• Overwhelming agreement - extend campus
cloud• Quality of Service• Price/Cost• Ease of use• Regulatory Viability
• Commercial Viability– To deliver– To maintain
• Mobility• Ease of delivery• Inability to fund from existing HEI funds

Key Recommendations• Develop, communicate and implement a wireless
strategy– meets major requirements – has widespread sectoral buy-in– Is flexible to keep pace with technology and commercial
changes• Implement the strategy over 2 major phases

Key Recommendations• Put in place mechanisms to drive adoption
and ensure success– Funding plan– Sectoral and HEI service owners– Communication & marketing plans and resources– Acquisition, Provisioning and Support Mechanisms
• Put in place review and Governance mechanisms

Phase 1 - Mid 2008 - 2010• Deliver a national high quality and affordable MNO
wireless service – Sept 2008 • Drive adoption – target - 10% of HEI market per
annum• DO NOT implement WiFi hotspot peering • Rollout emerging security middleware strategies
– National Sectoral Federation– Eduroam

Bridge to Phase 2• Build sectoral expertise on next generation mobile
wireless (WIMAX or others) by supporting and assessing nominated trials
• Apply to COMREG for sectoral Wireless licences (technology agnostic)
• Conduct annual and mid term review
![Page 9: HEAnet Wireless Strategy](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56816385550346895dd46d93/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Phase 2 - 2010 - 2013• Mid Term Review – confirms technology selection• Design, Procure and Deliver an on and off-campus
WIMAX (or other) solution for participating HEI’s to:– Complement Campus WiFi services– Augment or Replace MNO Service for off campus
• WIMAX Service may either be– Sectoral built (HEI and HEAnet)– Outsourced to Commercial provider

Phase 2• Continue to drive adoption for near and off-
campus – target 10% per annum• Continue to drive Security middleware strategy

Critical Success Factor’s– “Buy-in” - Maximum participation of HEI’s &
realistic level of adoption by end users– Price– Quality of the service– Marketing of solution to the end user community– Active Participation of the Commercial sector &
commercial viability of any offering

Outcomes – Phase 1• 30,000+ HE&R Subscribers• “Partnerships” with Mobile industry • NGN Mobile WIMAX & Other trials conducted • Sectoral Centre of Excellence/Expertise
created for NGN Mobile WIMAX & LTE• Certainty on sectoral WIMAX licence
