70 -- SMART CARD READERS DUE 011400 POC Ms. Annette Cole, Technical Manager, (703) 605-9948 E-MAIL: Click here to submit your proposal., annette.cole@gsa.gov. The Department of Navy Smart Card Office (DONSCO) is requesting bids for smart card readers. The smart card readers are needed to interact with the smart card client tokens in a Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT 4.0 or higher; UNIX; LINIX; and JavaOS environments. Depending on the client operating system, smart card readers should minimally be PC/SC (WHQL logoed) certified or Open Card Framework compliant. DONSCO is requesting bids for three different readers: 1) Desktop and Laptop workstations: 9 pin RS-232 Serial Interface: General Specification: 1 L.E.D with dual displaying power-on and read/write; T=1 and T=0 protocol support; frequency between 1 to 5MHz; software updates for new smart card protocols and APIs should be provided; and at least 1 to 2 meter cable. Protocol management/communication: Support data exchange 9600 to 115,200 bps or greater bps (smart card to reader). Power: powered via PS/2 port (or optional DIN5 connector); 3V and 5V smart card compatible; power supply compliant with IS0 7816 and EMV (5V, 60mA). Physical Characteristics: Minimally 100,000 insertion cycles; ISO chip location; enclosure or casing should contain an additional base for vertical positioning or sit vertically. Optional Feature: short circuit detection to protect smart card and reader. QUANTITY 2700. 2) USB 1.0 Port Interface: General Specification: 1 L.E.D with dual displaying power-on and read/write; T=1 and T=0 protocol support; frequency between 1 to 5MHz; software updates for new smart card protocols and APIs should be provided; and at least 1 to 2 meter cable. Protocol management/communication: support data exchange 9600 to 115,200 bps or greater bps (smart card to reader). Power: USB 1.0; 3V and 5V smart card compatible; power supply compliant with IS0 7816 and EMV (5V, 60mA). Physical Characteristics: Minimally 100,000 insertion cycles; ISO chip location; and enclosure or casing should contain an additional base for vertical positioning or sit vertically. Optional Feature: short circuit detection to protect smart card reader. QUANTITY 150. 3) PCMCIA Interface: General Specification: PCMCIA Type II Interface; T=1 and T=0 protocol support; frequency between 1 to 5MHz; software updates for new smart card protocols and APIs should be provided. Protocol management/communication: support data exchange 9600 to 115,200 bps or greater bps (smart card to reader). Power: 3V and 5V smart card compatible; power supply compliant with IS0 7816 and EMV (5V, 60mA). Physical Characteristics: up to 100,000 insertion cycles; and ISO chip location. Optional Feature: short circuit detection to protect smart card and reader. QUANTITY 150. If possible, please provide a picture via fax or identify a web site where proposed products can be viewed. Shipping Address: Chesapeake, Virginia 23320. Requested Delivery Date: 3 Weeks ARO. Partial shipments acceptable. Vendors can submit proposals for any of the three smart card reader types. Response Deadline: All responses should be submitted in electronic form (either MS word 4.0+ or Adobe Acrobat) to FEDSIM or fax to (703) 730-9863 by 4:00PM EST, January 14, 2000.
