Bandwidth in K12 exploding…

Our district is getting a DS3 this year. We have 1850 kids, so we meet the standards below. But - according to this, we’ll need 2 more in 5 years.

Over the next 5-7 years, the group recommends an external internet connection of 100 Mpbs for every 1,000 students and staff members and internal wide-area network connections of at least 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) per 1,000 students and staff members.

This is coming from this recommendation. I don’t know anything about that group, but (I can’t believe I’m saying this) that sounds about right. It’s a new world.
