Description

Purpose

The purpose of the funding is to connect public schools, city halls and hospitals eligible for funding under the Bavarian Hospital Act (BayKrG) to the Internet via gigabit-capable and continuous fiber-optic lines to the buildings (FTTB funding) and to equip hospitals eligible for funding under the BayKrG with technical equipment for wireless local area networks, insofar as BayernWLAN can also be broadcast via these wireless local area networks (WLAN funding).

Subject

The object of an FTTB subsidy is the initial establishment of a fiber-optic connection including a network termination unit.

The object of WLAN funding is the creation or expansion of a WLAN infrastructure, including the necessary cabling work in the building.

Beneficiaries

The recipients of the grants are the funding bodies of public schools as defined in Art. 3 (1) of the Bavarian Education Act (BayEUG), the municipalities, administrative communities and districts in Bavaria, and the hospital operators of the hospitals included in the hospital plan of the Free State of Bavaria in accordance with Art. 5 (2) of the Bavarian Hospital Act (BayKrG).

Eligible costs

Eligible costs are the necessary investment costs for the initial establishment of a fiber optic connection, including the network termination unit, or the necessary investment costs for the creation or expansion of a WLAN infrastructure, including the necessary cabling work in the building. The capital expenditure for the establishment of WLAN infrastructure also includes the costs of a site inspection under the BayKOM framework agreement (Lot 2).

Type and amount

Prerequisites

FTTB subsidy

FTTB funding is only granted if it is ensured that a continuous fiber-optic infrastructure is created all the way to the building.

However, FTTB subsidies are not granted

• if a fiber optic connection already exists up to the building,
• if the creation of a fiber-optic connection to the building is planned as part of an otherwise subsidized broadband expansion project, or
• if the public school or planned hospital is located in an area for which a telecommunications company has announced fiber-optic expansion to the building without cost sharing for end customers as part of a market investigation in connection with another measure to promote broadband expansion.

If the investor fails to meet its self-imposed milestones in the context of an announced roll-out for its own account and the funding recipient has set a grace period once without success, FTTB funding can be claimed again.
