- Description
- The FAA releases the final Screening Information Request (SIR). The NEXCOM Ground Network System Program will design, develop, and produce the cost-effective and logistically supportable ground network/switching communications components required to integrate the NEXCOM Multi-mode Digital Radio with the existing voice switches and the FAA backbone data routers. The resulting integrated system consisting of subsystems such as the Radio Interface Unit (RIU), and the Ground Network Interface (GNI) will provide the air/ground communication transmission system for both backward compatible analog voice and the new digital voice and the ATN subnetwork for datalink based on VHF Digital Link Mode 3 standards. This scalable system will be implemented first in the en-route domain and subsequently in the terminal, tower and flight service station environments. The FAA has reviewed the comments submitted by industry and has incorporated the comments where appropriate. A complete ! list of all comments received and the FAA's response will be posted on the AND-360 website within the next week. Reference material not readily available to offerors will be posted on the NEXCOM web page (i.e. White Paper referencing ICAO Doc X). The FAA shall not be liable for any costs associated with the preparation of comments/responses to this public announcement or SIR. Questions/comments to this SIR may be provided to Mr. Matthew Asai, ASU-330, Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence Avenue S.W., Washington D.C. 20591 or via email at Matt.Asai@faa.gov. See attached table of contents for a complete list of documents contained in this SIR. The contracting officer will not respond to telephonic requests for information.
