58 -- DIGITAL RADIO FACSIMILE EQUIPMENT DUE 082400 POC Technical POC: James Brown, (703) 313-5677 Information is requested on communication systems capable of digitally transmitting and receiving three (3) or more high-grade analog signals (radio facsimile)generated by Marta Systems Inc (DSPix7) processor boards, point-to-point, over a single dedicated 56 kbps digital leased telephone (TELCO) landline. System Requirements -- Input Signal/Interface: Analog, Signal Level -7 dBm Nominal, Carrier Frequency -- approx. 2400 Hz +/- 5%, Amplitude Modulated, Impedance -- 600 ohms balanced, Interface -- Serial, Asynchronous, RS-232, 4 Mbps. Output Signal/Interface: 56 kbps digital leased landline, V.35 interface with external TELCO provided DSU. Data: CCITT Group 3 facsimile, Weather Charts, 8-bit grayscale (256 levels). Power: 115 VAC Mechanical: Compact, self contained 19" rack mountable. Remote Access Configuration Control: The system shall be capable of being configured remotely, using a personal computer connected to a local configuration port, accessing the remote site system equipment viathe established aggregate point to point digital 56 kbps link. The configuration connection shall require minimal bandwidth so as not to hinder the primary function of the equipment. Remote Access Configuration Personal Computer Software: The configuration software required for the personal computer shall ba a HyperTerminal-like application or a simple system configuration like softwear. The software shall be provided with the system. System Redundancy: The system shall be capable of automatically switching to redundant components so that the failure of any single hardware component (e.g. power supplies, I/O modules, interface cards, system control modules, etc) does not cause the system to fail. Information Submission Requirement: Only Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) should respond to this solicitation. The OEM shall be prepared to demonstrate the efficacy of its system. The information shall include sufficient technical detail to identify required system components and component configuration. Additionally, a technical point of contact (POC name and phone number) is required with all information submissions. All information is to be submitted to: COMMANDER, USCG TISCOM (tsd-3), ATTN: Mr. James Brown, 7323 Telegraph Rd, Alexandria, VA 22315-3940. Posted 08/04/00 (W-SN482216). (0217)
