The microwave system must operate in license exempt (FCC Part 15.247) frequency ranges. Maximum distance between remote sites is 10 miles. Maximum cable length between antennas and transceivers is 120 feet. Each link must require no more than two antennas. The system must have far end loop back and monitoring capabilities. The transceivers must mount in an EIA nineteen-inch rack. The transceivers will be mounted in a climate-controlled environment. NAICS Code 334220. The Coast Guard seeks to identify COTS products that would meet these requirements and evaluate the unit for integration into presently installed systems.
