* = Required Field FedBizOpps Amendment to a Previous Combined Solicitation Rev. March 2010 S Direct TV Service Agreement at James J Peters VA Medical Center 10468-3904 36C24219Q1220 10-10-2019 N 515210 Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 2 James J.

www.va.gov www.va.gov andres.cepeda@va.gov andres.cepeda@va.gov The purpose of this amendment is to provide question and answers from interested vendors and provide site visit for interested vendors. Please see attached. The solicitation due date is extended to 10 October 2019 at 12:00 PM EST.

The SOW states that Building 100 has an existing DirecTV system that is standard definition. Are all the TV’s at this location Pro-Idioms? NO

You say you have 275 drops and want to change over to HD capable. What receivers do you currently have in your HD system and what modulators are you using? None of our equipment will supply HD so we need to upgrade.

Regarding the new Fisher House buildings, you say you want 16 drops. If so, do you envision a head end system at each new building? How many receivers at the head end of each building?

There is 17 locations in Fisher House 1 but 18 locations in Fisher House 2. I would also like to add that the TVs have been installed in both Fisher Houses already and there are coaxial lines running from each TV location back to the data closet in each house, but those lines have not been terminated. Therefore, you would need to install a head end in each Fisher House, terminate the 35 lines, plug them into your head end, then install receivers in the 35 locations

Could you please provide the requested channel lineup including the number channels that are required?

Local Channels 2,4,5,7,9,11,13,21 (Channel 12 local chapel) Yes Network, SNY, Military Channel, and Chapel Channel if available

Can you tell me if you have H25 receivers now, or do you have the older D12's? We have D12’s
