Element14 [1] and kits and spares , it would cost 2750 + 586 ( for enclosures) even a soapbox would if we do not want to spend on enclosures. also they are available from kitsnspares [2] While placing an order with Element14 give your Pan number instead of the sales tax registration number they ask for in the checkout form . . since net is available i would rely on remote support, afaik hardware support i do not know what is the policy with the vendor , i was thinking of the power needs can be taken care by mashing it up with the Thinvent solar solution - there computers or look for a vendor , also still it is not clear the kind of language they are comfortable with .
