This requirement is set aside for small business. INSTALLATION LOCATION ONE: Crisis Response Center (CRC). The contractor shall install three (3) government-owned 61 inch NEC Plasma Panels on government-owned NEC wall mounts. The plasma panels shall be wired to a government-owned rack located in an adjacent room. The rack will house a contractor-provided matrix switch that will allow for 12 computer inputs and 3 VCRs (composite video) to be controlled to the 3 plasma panels and 3 existing Video Projectors and a government-owned matrix switch to be used as a backup to the system. The matrix switch and plasmas shall be controlled by a government-owned AMX control system. The government will provide existing AMX source code and Touch Panel code for reprogramming. The audio from the 3 VCRs will be routed to the audio system. The contractor shall ensure that all new video wiring is isolated and shielded from existing wiring by using shielded cables and running all cables through 1 inch steel flex conduit. These conduit runs shall terminate at the input devices and at the equipment rack and shall be continuous. The contractor shall provide new interfaces to split local versus buffered monitor signals at all 12 computer locations. All cables shall be Plenum rated for low toxic emissions. The final configuration shall allow for 12 input CPUs and 3 VCRs to be individually routed to each of 3 Plasma Panels and 3 Video Projectors. Display option selected shall force macros that setup the individual locations for each use. (i.e. Plasma selection, turns off projector and raises screen, etc) A reset button shall force a pre-designed configuration automatically at the touch of one button. INSTALLATION LOCATION TWO: Command Center. The contractor shall install eight (8) government-owned LCD monitors and two (2) government-owned 42 inch NEC Plasma panels on government-owned NEC wall mounts.

Classified equipment shall be located a minimum of five feet from non classified equipment. The contractor shall run all cables through steel flex conduit to further isolate the runs. The contractor shall provide and install a matrix switch which will allow for 2 users to access control of all display producing items/monitors. The contractor shall route two government-owned VCRs to two of the CPUs for playback capabilities. These VCRs shall be housed with the matrix switch in the contractor-provided racks located between the two user locations (see drawing).

These conduit runs shall terminate at the input devices and at the equipment rack and shall be continuous.
