- This synopsis is being posted to both the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) page located at http://www.eps.gov and the Navy Electronic Commerce Online (NECO) site located at http://www.neco.navy.mil. While it is understood the FBO is the single point of entry for posting of synopsis 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 Naval Sea Systems Command. This is a combined synopsis/solicitation for a commercial item prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This is a Request for Proposal (RFP); the solicitation number is N00178-06-R-1031. The Naval Surface Warfare Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) intends to purchase on a sole source basis, a quantity of two (2) each Model RCB-2000 Dual Channel Telemetry Receivers available from L3 Communications Microdyne, located at 1515 Grundys Lane, Bristol, PA 19007-1506. CLIN 0001 Two (2) each, Model RCB-2000 Dual Channel Telemetry Receiver. The dual channel receiver/combiner (DCRC) unit will be used for the reception, pre-detection combining, demodulation and bit synchronization of U.S. Navy telemetry data in the 2185 Mhz to 2485 Mhz frequency spectrum. The DCRC shall be capable of receiving two independent RF streams and pre-detection combining them into a single intermediate frequency (IF) output. The DCRC shall provide the capability to take the combined IF output and demodulate it into a video stream output. Several modes of demodulation shall be supported including frequency modulation (FM), phase modulation (PM), bi-phase shift keying (BPSK) and Quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK). The DCRC shall support modulated signals with data rates from 5 samples per seconds to 20 Mega samples per second in all modes. Setup and control of all DCRC functions shall be supported through front panel controls and remotely via RS-232C, IEEE-488 and 10 base T ethernet connections. The RCP shall conform to all IRIG 106-96 telemetry standards.
