Technical requirements specify a minimum download speed of 100 Mbps, an upload speed of 10 Mbps, and a monthly data allocation of at least 50 GB per unit, with speeds throttled to 1 Mbps upon reaching the cap to avoid automatic overage charges.

Bidders must certify they are not engaged in a boycott of Israel and comply with state confidentiality and information security policies.
