Pascua Yaqui Tribe of Arizona

The project proposes the following activities designed to improve access to, and use of, broadband services among Tribal members:

• Enable the deployment of fixed wireless broadband services to the Tribal communities of Guadalupe (400 unserved homes), Tortuga Ranch (100 unserved homes), Old Pascua (300 unserved homes), Barrio Libre (300 unserved homes), Marana (75 unserved homes), and Coolidge (75 unserved home homes). 
• Provide critical telecom service to the Tribe’s 69 government buildings and 9 businesses. 
• Run fiber optic cable from the Tribe’s Data Center and ISP Core to connect critical servers and data.
• Deploy a fiber backbone and fiber-to-the-home to the new housing development on the Reservation (122 new homes). 
• Provide broadband to underserved Tribal community members on the Reservation and outlying communities of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe (a total of 1,372 homes, 69 government buildings, and 9 businesses). 
• Erect three 80-foot monopole towers and outfit two existing pieces of infrastructure (one tower and one building rooftop) with broadband equipment to provide 1,250 unserved Native American households with 5 GHz fixed wireless at qualifying speeds of 100/20 Mbps or greater. 
• Procure and install Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) for each unserved household.
