DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES/GENERAL INFORMATION. 1.1. Scope of Work. Non-personal Services: The contractor shall furnish all personnel, equipment, tools, materials, supervision, transportation and other services necessary to provide and install a back-up alternate alarm system located at the Bldg 6126 Bolling AFB, Washington, D.C. 1.2. 11th Security Forces Requirements. In normal primary operation, the existing equipment (located at Bldg 421, Security Forces Control Center) will be fully functional while the redundant system will be logged in and running; this would be considered the alternate system. If operation at the redundant site is deemed necessary, the operator would close alarm resolution at the primary site in preparation to relocate to the redundant site. At the redundant site the computers would be rotated to the redundant servers using the rotate function on the primary server. Upon completion of the rotate functions, the system would be launched and alarm monitoring resumed. The reverse procedures would be used to rotate back to the primary existing equipment. Due to possible message conflicts with the field panels, it is not recommended that both the primary and alternate system be used for monitoring at the same time. 1.2.1. The contractor will cross connect the incoming field panel lines into existing -supplied 66 blocks, one for accounts 1001-1024 and the other for accounts 1025-1048. These two blocks will be the common for the SW872A-FFF A/B Telco Switch. Output A of the switch will connect to the existing 66 block, and side B will connect to the alternate existing mirror 66 block. Two switches will be installed one for each common Telco cable set. The lines will be manually switched upon rotation to the alternate existing system. 1.2.2. Redundant Site Computer- A complete primary and backup pair of servers should be installed at the alternate LED location. 1.2.3. Redundant Site Console- The redundant site console should be a 2-bay certified console for the existing system. 1.2.4.

Communications- The 11 CES will be responsible for providing no less than 48 dry POT line pairs for the central Telco building to the redundant LE Desk communications room. Additional POT lines are highly recommended in order to support future expandability to the intrusion detection system (IDS) infrastructure. 1.2.8. The Ethernet communication between the primary and the redundant LE desk will be via single mode fiber. The 844 CG will be required to supply two strands of SM fiber between the two locations. The contractor will then patch off of the connector fiber distribution block at each law enforcement desk communications room to a fiber modem which will convert the Ethernet to copper. 1.2.9.
