- STATEMENT OF WORK PURCHASE OF EQUIPMENT FOR NISE 219BAR-19-020 PROJECT: REPLACING COPPER BACKPLANES WITH FIBER OPTIC BACKPLANES IN WEAPON REPLACEABLE ASSEMBLIES � 1.0��� Background � This Statement of Work (SOW) describes the equipment requested from ThorLabs and installation requirements for the NISE Project 219BAR-19-020: Replacing Copper Backplanes with Fiber Optic Backplanes in Weapon Replaceable Assemblies. 2.0��� Scope � This effort is to purchase photoreceivers and adapters from ThorLabs necessary to meet bandwidth objectives in support of the project�s initial design that will allow the Navy to prepare the weapon replaceable assembly (WRA) backplane for future advancements in computing that require greater data rates and reduced footprints. 3.0��� Objectives � This NISE Project�s three objectives are: To demonstrate how the use of high speed digital fiber optics and wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) can replace traditional copper traces and reduce the required real-estate. To demonstrate the increased flexibility of integration at the card and backplane levels. The use of tunable lasers and multicore fiber may allow for signals to be identified, routed, or addressed based on the wavelength and spatial content of the light used to transmit the data. To build and test the board to backplane fiber optic connector designs Task & System Requirements Task Requirement Provide all associated miscellaneous parts, hardware and labor to design and install a photoreceivers and adapters to meet design specifications System Requirements Hardware: Hardware must be compatible with all hardware and software requirements for the this NISE Projects initial design to meet feasibility requirements Design Plan: Initial Schematic and Hardware Purchase List developed by NAVAIR Fiber Optic Team. Installation: ThorLabs will ship photoreceivers and adapters. � 4.1��� Information Assurance Requirements � This NISE project intends to not require connection to any Navy networks. Any equipment requiring connection, either classified or unclassified, to the DoD global information grid (GIG) will be in compliance with NAVAIR Information Assurance requirements. 4.2.�� Equipment for NISE Project Four (4) Photoreceivers � Part #: RXM40AF, Description: RX INSTR, 40GHz, SM, IR; Rugged Instrument Housing; Current monitor output; Digital current display; USB-Mini power supply; InGaAs Detector; Adjustable Gain; Adjustable Peaking. 4 (4) adapters � Part #: DSA-ADAPTER-US, Description: Adapter for Photoreceivers. Government Furnished Facilities � Fiber Optic Lab in Pax River, Bldg 2187 access is not required. �6.0���� Place of Performance Photoreceivers and Adapters will be installed (if required) at the Fiber Optic Lab in Pax River, Bldg 2187. � 8.0� Items shipped will be received at: Naval Air Station NAS Patuxent River 48110 Shaw Road, Bldg 2187 Rm 2140-A3 Patuxent River, MD 20670 Attn.: Javier Rosales/Jacquelynn Pressey � 9.0��� Period of Performance � The contractor will have the lasers fully tuned & integrated into full design no later than 15 September 2020. Coordination between the Fiber Optic Team and Freedom Photonics will be required. 10.0� Training The Contractor is not required to provide training to the Fiber Optic Team for the above HW items. 11. 0 Warranty/Maintenance Service Vendor will provide a warranty on all work and equipment. Within the warranty period, the contractor will provide technical support, via telephone or in-person, to troubleshoot & return the system to operational state. After the warranty period, a telephone help desk number will be provided to maintain support for the life of the system.
