58 -- RF DISTRIBUTION FOR DIGITAL MODULAR RADIO (DMR) DUE 071097 POC David Bodner, PCO, (703)602-0694 WEB: Some DMR-related information is available here., http://www.jmcoms.org. E-MAIL: click here to contact the contracting officer via e-mail, bodnerd@nosc.mil. The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command, Joint Maritime Communications System (JMCOMS) Program Office, is seeking potential sources to supply the Navy and joint forces with commercial off-the shelf, non-developmental Radio Frequency (RF) Distribution for the multiple channel, multiple mode, multiple band, programmable Digital Modular Radio (DMR). RF Distribution consists of all RF equipment in both the transmit and receive paths including; Power Amplifiers (PAs), combiners, transmit filters, antennas, receive filters, Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA), RF splitters and RF switching.. The RF Distribution functions shall be software reconfigurable, modular in design, and scaleable to meet various Naval platform circuit requirements. The RF Distribution system shall support the DMR, operating in the 100 kHz to 2 GHz frequency range for any of the DMR waveforms including those listed below. The RF Distribution System shall be interoperable with all legacy systems listed below in the defined frequency range. The system must be easily maintainable, have low life cycle costs, and have growth capabilities to meet future needs. The RF Distribution System power requirements shall be compatible with existing shipboard and shore applications. The RF Distribution System shall also be remotely controllable using a computer workstation optimized for network operations and interface with the DMR as required. Any offeror who can provide an item or items which meet the above characteristics should, at a minimum, submit the following information: System description and performance which addresses the desired capabilities, the unit cost per channel, the included capabilities at the submitted cost/channel, upgrade path, production rates, length of time product has been on the market, quantities produced to date, supporting technical documentation, warranty information, test reports/supporting data, logistic infrastructure, performance/reliability data, and the appropriate company points of contact. Interested parties must indicate whether they are a small business or 8(a). This is not an RFP, a promise to issue an RFP, nor will the government pay for information received in response to this synopsis. Acknowledgment or receipt will not be made nor will telephone inquires be honored. Responses to this synopsis must be received by 1600 EDT on 07/10/97 in at the following address: Commander, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command, ATTN: SPAWAR 02-32C, Room 201, 2451 Crystal Drive, Arlington, VA 22245 and must reference the synopsis number on both the enclosure(s) and mailing envelope. Desired Equipment Function/Waveform UHF SATCOM/LOS Digital Wideband Transmission System (DWTS) High Frequency Radio Group (HFRG) Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) Maritime Cellular Information Exchange System (MCIXS) High Speed Fleet Broadcast (HSFB) HF Small Ship Joint Tactical Terminal (JTT) AN/GRC-211 AN/GRC-80 AN/URR-79 (0157)
