Comparative Wireless Strategies Summary <br />Each network was implemented for specific original purposes, supported by a specific business <br />model. The table below provides a comparison of the purpose, business model, funding <br />mechanisms, and resultant network speeds of the cities' wireless implementations. <br />Figure 87: Comparison of City Wireless Implementation Strategies <br />CityH <br />N <br />d <br />rr�4 <br />g„ <br />� <br />t LL <br />O <br />R N <br />¢�w <br />IL <br />C0 <br />.......................................................................................................................................____________________________________________________________________________________________ <br />Boston, MA <br />ess <br />Corpus Christi, TX <br />Minneapolis, MN <br />Oklahoma City, OK <br />less <br />Ponca City, OK <br />Port Angeles, WA ess <br />Richmond, CA ess <br />San Francisco, CA <br />San Jose, CA <br />Santa Clara, CA <br />Santa Monica, CA <br />'Network Purposes: Corpus Christi, Texas (AMR), Minneapolis, Minnesota (Anchor Tenant, City field staff); Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (Public Safety), Ponca <br />City, Oklahoma (City Departments), Port Angeles, Washington (Public Safety) <br />"Run by city department. <br />$$Boston, Massachusetts—HUD, Oklahoma City, OK—fiber capacity for business, in-home residential modems, Port Angeles, Washington—ARRA; Richmond, <br />CA—Partner <br />*Boston, Massachusetts-1Mbps, Richmond, CA-16Mbps <br />Regardless of the scale and scope of the wireless broadband network deployment chosen by the City of <br />San Leandro, there are successful best practice implementations to guide the City for its own successful <br />network deployment. As the City moves forward with its wireless deployment strategy it is important to: <br />• Examine successful implementations and draw applicable lessons; <br />• Consider unique needs and challenges of the community and address them in planning; <br />• Strive for clarity of purpose among stakeholders regarding the purpose and goals for the network; <br />155 <br />
