[Python] Using sentence transformers with limited access to internet

I have access to the latest packages but I cannot access internet from my python enviroment.

Package versions that I have are as below

huggingface-hub-0.4.0 sacremoses-0.0.47 tokenizers-0.10.3 transformers-4.15.0
sentence-transformers-2.1.0 sentencepiece-0.1.96 torchvision-0.11.2

print (torch.__version__)
1.10.1+cu102


I went to the location and copied all the files in a folder

os.listdir('multi-qa-mpnet-base-dot-v1_Jan2022/')

['config_sentence_transformers.json',
'config.json',
'gitattributes',
'modules.json',
'data_config.json',
'sentence_bert_config.json',
'README.md',
'special_tokens_map.json',
'tokenizer_config.json',
'train_script.py',
'vocab.txt',
'tokenizer.json',
'1_Pooling',
'.ipynb_checkpoints',
'9e1e76b7a067f72e49c7f571cd8e811f7a1567bec49f17e5eaaea899e7bc2c9e']


Then I went to the url and tried to execute the code listed there

But I get below error

model = SentenceTransformer('multi-qa-mpnet-base-dot-v1_Jan2022/')

OSError: Error no file named ['pytorch_model.bin', 'tf_model.h5', 'model.ckpt.index', 'flax_model.msgpack'] found in directory multi-qa-mpnet-base-dot-v1_Jan2022/ or `from_tf` and `from_flax` set to False.


Where could I get those 4 files ('pytorch_model.bin', 'tf_model.h5', 'model.ckpt.index', 'flax_model.msgpack') or what else do I need to change? These files are not available at the first URL mentioned above
