58 -- DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS SWITCH TO UPGRADE THE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL CENTER COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM SOL DAAD07-95-R-0136 DUE 080495 POC For information contact Mrs. Darline Hibner, Contract Specialist, at (505) 678-7423, or Mr. Chris L. Brusuelas, Contracting Officer, at (505) 678-4323 NSN 5895-01-X95-1037, Digital Communications Switch to upgrade the Air Traffic Control Center communications system. This is the second transmission of this notice to CBD. Transmitted previously 20 Jun 95. The switch shall provide integrated communications capabilities to the Air Traffic Control (ATC), Command/Control/Communication/Computers/ Intelligence/Integration, (C4I2) (and its subset, C3), Training Range Control, and Command and Operation Centers users. The switch shall be compatible with FAA communications systems, and interface with all FAA Digital Signal Level Zero 64KB/S, (DSO) voice/data, digital/analog circuit interfaces. The switch shall be interoperable and compatible with all DoD communications systems and interfaces. The WSMR ATC communications system will initially employ a stand alone digital switch with 76 Digital Signal Level Zero 64KB/S, (DSO's) voice/data channels consisting of 40 Radiophones, 20 Landlines, 16 Intercom, Upgradable to 480 ports and seventeen operator positions. The switch shall have a capacity of 76 digital cross connects, voice/data channels, with a capacity to upgrade to 480 ports with multiple voice/data digital/analog interfaces based on a Microprocessor-controlled interface integrated on a time division multiplexed bus network. The switch shall combine modular hardware and modular software configurations items (CIs) to form an integrated communications system. The switch shall utilize distributed processing architecture, with digital cross connects, utilizing groom and file DSO's within T-1's, on a totally non-blocking architecture offering unlimited simultaneous conferencing. The switch shall be capable of being configured to meet a variety of different operating requirements for integrating large and small systems, including providing any combination of tactile, touch screen, or desk-top operator control panels; plug-in interface modules for direct connection to any standard radio link and communications network; and redundant modules for increased reliability of critical lines or functions. The switch shall have the upgrade capability to integrate various COMSEC interface encryption modules for red/black secure operations. Trunking system management will be accomplished through the utilization of a Systems Interface Management System (SIMS) integrated into the switch system Local Area Network (LAN), an interactive terminal consisting of a state of the art (486 or better) IBM compatible personal computer terminal. The WSMR trunking system will also comply with the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) requirement that it be 100% capable of trunking with other Federal trunking systems in the area of WSMR. All responsible sources may submit an offer which will be considered. For copies of the solicitation contact Willie Smith at (505)678-1735 or Fax (505)678-4975. (0187)
