- Description
- This synopsis is being posted to both the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) page located at http://www.eps.gov and the Navy Electronic Commerce on Line (NECO) site located at http://www.neco.navy.mil. While it is understood that FBO is the single point of entry for posting of synopses and solicitations to the internet, NECO is the alternative in case FBO is unavailable. Please feel free to use either site to access information posted by the Navy Sea Systems Command. This acquisition is being considered for a small business set-aside. The requirement is covered by NAICS code of 334417 and has an associated size standard of $ 5.5 million. This is a requirement for a commercial point-to-point fiber optic switches with the following desired performance and construction features: (1) Switch shall be of an Optical-Electrical-Optical (OEO) design and conform to Layer 1 (physical ) definition of the OSI model. Switch shall not read or otherwise interpret any data. (2) Switch shall be 100 percent non-blocking, affording any port to any port connectivity. (3) Switch shall regenerate the signal. (4) Crosstalk between any two channels shall not exceed -50dB. (5) Switch shall support one-way point-to-point transmission (simplex). Simultaneous two-way transmission (duplex), and simultaneous multicast (1 to n) operations. For multicast operations, user shall be able to specify a single responding channel. (6) Switch shall support simultaneous operations of multi-mode and single-mode transmissions. This may be accomplished via separate paths through the switch or using separate switch or using separate switches/modules. (7) Switch shall be air-cooled. (8) Switch shall be capable of remote or local control via ASCII characters. (9) Switch shall be capa ble of control via serial port or Ethernet port. (10) Switch shall be rack mountable in a standard EIA 19 inch rack. (11) Switch shall feature a modular design with a minimum total of 64 ports. (The term modular design is defined to mean a design which allows flexibility in configuration, affording a user the opportunity to configure either a small number of ports or a larger number of ports without excessively redundant support requirements such as power supplies, rack frames, physical space, and consumable supplies. If multiple protocols and modes are supported, then these features should be available in scales somewhat less than entire racks. Reconfigurations should be able to be made quickly and efficiently by site personnel without highly specialized training or tools.) (12) Switch shall be compliant with, as a minimum, ISO-standard FDDI/FDD-II and Optical Ethernet (IEE E 802.3/all speeds) standards. (13) Switch design shall be modular and have field replaceable components including transceivers, any circuit cards, power supplies, and chassis. (14) Switch shall have an input to output latency not to exceed 10ns on any path. (15) Construction shall adhere to best commercial practices. (16) Purchasers shall be able to specify any industry standard fiber connectors. (17) Minimum warranty of twelve months on all parts and labor. (18) Additional ports in modularly scaled increments. Optional Features include (1) Additional optical and electrical protocols. (2) Graphical User Interface (GUI) with additional features such as power and temperature alarms, password login security, port naming, port presets, opening and saving of configurations files. (3) Military hardening features (e.g., water resistance, shock hardening.) (4) Load sharing, redundant, hot swappable power supplies drawing power from a single 15 amp, 115 volt AC (wye) circuit. (5) Hot swappable LRUs. Interested small businesses which believe they can provide a commercial or modified commercial item meeting the above requirements should respond with a submission of a product description and/or specification sheet within ten (10) calendar days to xds12@nswc.navy.mil and specify your business size status. The determination to set-aside this requirement or open it to all offerors will be made prior to issuing the RFP. Simplified acquisition procedures in accordance with FAR 13.5 and FAR Part 12 will be utilized. The resultant contract will be a five-year Indefinite Deliver/Indefinite Quantity contact with firm fixed price pricing provisions. The minimum guaranteed obligation is 64 ports of switching, and the anticipated contract ceiling is 6400 por ts of switching. FOB Destination delivery of switches is desired 90 days after placement of order. Solicitation N00178-04-R-2026 for this requirement will be issued electronically in August 2004 and will close approximately 30 days after issuance. Offerors will be required to provide a written proposal and will be scheduled to bring a sample fiber optic switch to NSWCDD, Dahlgren, VA for onsite demonstration and testing (estimated to last two days) after review of the written proposal. Questions may be forwarded to fax number (540 653-4089, Attn: Code XDS122 or email address xds12@nswc.navy.mil Reference solicitation number N00178-04-R-2026 on any questions.
