DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA SYSTEM

INTRODUCTION

The Central Texas VA Health Care System requires design and installation of a Distributed Antenna System (DAS system) for its VA Medical Center located in Temple, TX. This is a new system that will be installed on and around our existing buildings and provide the VA with a long-term solution to our mobile network reception issues currently and in the future.

PLACE OF PERFORMANCE

Olin E. Teague Veterans' Medical Center 1901 Veterans Memorial Drive Temple, TX 76504

SCOPE OF WORK:

This requirement will provide complete mobile phone network coverage throughout buildings 204 and 163 and provide the VA with a means to communicate between key personnel. This system is being planned to handle multiple carriers at once and with the ability to expand as new technologies emerge.

The Offeror will propose a neutral host fiber DAS. The head end will be located in Building 204, 6G 20 Communications Room.

The Proposed solution must be a neutral host DAS capable of providing connections for multiple wireless carriers and technologies, and inclusion of the GPS donor antenna is preferred.

The DAS equipment in the proposal must support the following:

700MHz / 800MHz / 850MHz Cellular / 1900MHz PCS / 2100MHz / 2300 MHz / AWS technologies as used by Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T

Remote units and fiber housings must be wall mounted in the IDF rooms on fire rated wooden backboards. Power connection will be within a normal distance of less than 5 feet.

All carrier integration and required testing will be handled by each individual carrier that wishes to install their system into the DAS.

Passive Intermodulation (PIM) testing must be included in the quote, if PIM rated components will be provided.

Offeror must conform to normal hours of operations of 8:00am – 5:00pm, Monday thru Friday. Escort as required will be provided at no additional cost to the Offeror. Offeror must be available on weekends and afterhours as required to prevent disruption of patient care.

In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

The Offeror shall install all equipment in accordance with (IAW) all applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the rules and regulations of the Public Utility Commission of Texas and the Federal Communications Commission.
