Announcing a New IT Choice for Schools and Libraries
Nutanix Integrated Solution Bundles: Now Available for E-Rate Category 2 Funding
K-12 schools and city, county, and tribal libraries are leveraging the Federal E-Rate program for vital funding to close the broadband services delivery gap, provide CIPA certified connectivity solutions and affordable access to high-speed, secure broadband.
Nutanix has introduced an integrated software-defined solution for schools and libraries. Features include a FIPS-140 compliant platform (L1/L2), secure IPv4/IPv6 networking, broadband services, role-based access control, caching services, traffic shaping, and DNS that can run anywhere, from on-premises to the cloud. More than 75% of the costs are estimated to qualify for E-rate funding.
Additional Nutanix features are included in these integrated bundles that come with the eligible solution, providing additional value. Features such as cost governance, files management, and services are non-eligible for E-Rate reimbursement; however, they can be added to the eligible baseline software under a supplemental quote.
