3. Following IA scans, MEI hardware initialization, system operations, data harvesting, and shutdown shall be completed without functional failure and/or error In Accordance With (IAW) the procedures detailed in this document.

1.1 IBCS EOC

The IBCS EOC consists of an S-280 Shelter, which is unmanned during normal operations and the IBCS Collaborative Environment (ICE) HDT® AirBeam tent (see Figure 1-1), which the operators and staff work in. The S-280 Shelter provides two Warfighter Workstations (WFWS) so that operations can be conducted while the ICE) is being setup. IBCS EOCs are configurable mobile deployable facilities used by IFMC Army System of Systems (ASoS) commanders and staffs to control Air and Missile Defense (AMD) forces at Battery (BTRY) through Battalion (BN) echelons. The IBCS EOC incorporates Non-Developmental-Item (NDI), Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS), Government-Furnished Equipment (GFE), and IBCS-developed Common Software Configuration Items (CSCI) within EOC software builds. The EOC shelters host IBCS, battle command and combat service support software suites, communications equipment, and interfaces with numerous non-battle command stations to serve as an information aggregation point.

Figure 1-1. ICE HBT® AirBeam Tent

EOCs utilize a common hardware configuration and can be tailored in software to match the mission requirements of each respective echelon in both size and capability. The BTRY EOC is the standard EOC configuration and includes a single S-280 Shelter, which is transported on a M1148 9-ton truck (see Figure 1-2) and is used to tow the Engagement Center Trailer (ECT). A BN EOC consists of two EOCs connected with a Tactical Fiber Optic Cable Assembly (TFOCA)-II fiber network. One of the BTRY S-280 / ICE pairs is intended for use in planning and support with the second S-280 / ICE pair performing engagement operations. For purposes of this test procedure all EOCs will be tested in the BTRY configuration and any references to an EOC will be understood as BTRY EOCs, unless otherwise delineated.

Figure 1-2. Front Isometric View of EOC Prime Mover & S-280 Shelter

Once setup, the ICE provides the user nine WFWS and one AMDWS workstation. It also provides the user the ability to project every WFWS onto a projector screen (see Figure 1-3 for ICE setup).

Figure 1-3. ICE Interior View

The ICE is powered using shore power or generator power plugged into a power distribution box called an ICE Power Distribution Unit (PDU) (see Figure 1-4).

Figure 1-4. ICE PDU

The ICE PDU provides power for tent lighting along with the projectors and the transit cases that host the WFWS and Local Area Network (LAN) transit cases. The wiring diagram is shown in Figure 1-5.

Figure 1-5. ICE PDU Power Connections

Each ICE has a primary and secondary LAN transit case. The purpose of the primary transit case (see Figure 1-6) is to provide connectivity between the WFWS and the S-280 EOC as well as providing video to the projectors in the ICE.

Figure 1-6. Primary LAN Transit Case

The primary transit case connects via a TFOCA-II fiber to the Red Signal Entry Panel (SEP) (see Figure 1-7) from the primary transit case path panel (see Figure 1-8).

Figure 1-7. Red Road Side SEP

The Red SEP is also where the the A-Sides (Launchers and Sensors) connections are made.

Figure 1-8. Primary LAN Patch Panel

The patch panel also connects the to the WFWS transit cases by TFOCA-II fiber. Each WFWS transit case (see Figures 1-9 and 1-10) allows for two Common Warfighter Machine Interface (CWMI) instances allowing the user to fight or plan a battle.

Figure 1-9. Workstation Transit Case

Figure 1-10. Workstation Transit Case Rear View Close Up

The secondary LAN transit case (see Figure 1-11 and 1-12) connects to the S-280 via a TFOCA-II fiber cable and allows the EOC to be monitored for CO2 and temperature.

Figure 1-11. Secondary LAN Transit Case

Figure 1-12. Secondary LAN Patch Panel

The secondary LAN transit case connects to the S-280’s Black SEP Panel’s (see Figure 1-13) LAN/NIPR port.

Figure 1-13. Black Curb Side SEP

The Black SEP is also where EOCs cab connect together through the Alt. Media ports.

The inside of the S-280 shelter (see Figure 1-14 through 1-16) contains two WFWS to enable fighting while the ICE is being set up. The EOC servers also reside in the S-280 along with tactical radios to be able to communicate with the joint world.

Figure 1-16. S-280 Equipment Rack Overview

Rack 1 of the S-280 (see Figure 1-17) contains most of the tactical radios including MIDS and JBC-P. This rack also contains the IFCN radio, the HARRIS BPU, the voice communications box, the eMCSU, along with the EOC’s GPS server.

Figure 1-17. S-280 Rack 1

Rack 2 of the S-280 (see Figure 1-18) contains the rest of the tactical radios including the AN PRC 117Gs, the JTT, and it also houses the maintenance laptop.

Figure 1-18. S-280 Rack 2

Rack 3 of the S-280 (see Figure 1-19) contains the classified printer, the last tactical radio, the CASS receiver, the ADSI (L-16) computer, and the black network components.

Figure 1-19. S-280 Rack 3

Rack 4 of the S-280 (see Figure 1-20) contains the EOC servers, the red side network, and the Cross Domain Solution (CDS). This rack is the heart and brains of the EOC. IBCS software is housed on the servers and allows the user to execute the mission.

Figure 1-20. S-280 Rack 4

The final rack inside the S-280 is the Power Distribution Panel (PDP) (see Figure 1-21) Figure 1-21. S-280 PDP

The PDP is located on the roadside on the inside of the shelter and contains a Carbon Monoxide Detector, which provides an audible alarm if CO reaches dangerous levels and DC Main Circuit Breakers, which provide power on and off for all DC components.

The S-280 gets power from a generator, shore power, or power from another EOC through the Power Entry Vault (PEV) (see Figure 1-22 and 1-23).

Figure 1-22. S-280 PEV Side View

The PEV has several functions. The primary functions include providing prime power point of entry, exporting power to other PEVs and providing power to other subassemblies, and maintaining vehicle battery charge.

Figure 1-23. S-280 PEV Front View

The front SEP (see Figure 1-24) contains the connections that allow connections to other EOCs (through the HRFU connections), through SATCOM (VHF/UHF connections), to the joint community through MIDS (L16), and is the entry for the GPS signal into the timing units.

Table 1‑1. EOC Configurations by Echelon

The S-280 Shelter and IFCN / Highband Radio Frequency Unit (HRFU) antenna mast are mounted on the Container Roll-in/Out Platform (CROP) pallet and are offloaded for operations. The shelter is the basic building block for IBCS EOCs and provides space for two operators. The S-280 shelter includes equipment rack and cabling for IBCS servers and radios. The cable infrastructure provides common interfaces for data, power, radio-frequency (RF) and audio connections in every EOC.

1.2 EOC Lite

An EOC Lite (see Figure 1-25) will be used as a second C2 to test A-Side to A-Side communications during the Acceptance Test. An EOC Lite is operationally equivalent to an IBCS EOC but does not include tactical radios. Therefore, it cannot be used to test radio to radio communications nor does it check functionality of all the hardware components. It may be worthwhile to list which hardware components that are not tested – if Kyle can provide.

1.3 Additional Test Equipment

In addition to the EOC Lite, the following items are needed in order to meet the AT requirements as identified in this document.

Table 1-2. Additional Test Equipment

2. Test Configurations

2.1 Test Diagrams

There are three test configurations that will be used during AT (see Figures 2-1 through 2-3). However, with an EOC Lite, not all hardware components can be tested because EOC Lites lack tactical radios.
