Attachment 1 – Airfield Camera Upgrade Salient Characteristics

1. The following items are needed to install the camera system which will be located in Bldg 15380 Rm 202, with cameras located on airfield poles, and 732 AMS buildings 15380, 15431, 15510, and 10364.

2. The surveillance system must provide continuous video coverage of aircraft parking areas, building access points, airfield equipment staging areas, and surrounding perimeter zones associated with Bldg 15380 operations. Camera placement must minimize blind spots and provide sufficient resolution to identify personnel and vehicles within the monitored area.

3. The items listed below are deemed essential for meeting the government's minimum needs.

A. 4 ea Surveillance Cameras for indoor use

C. 12 ea Outdoor PTZ Cameras

• Salient Characteristics:

• Minimum 8MP resolution

• 36x optical zoom minimum capability

• Integrated illumination Day/Night operation capable

• Low-light sensitivity

• Operating temperature range must be -40°F to +122°F or greater

• Wind resistance minimum 100 mph sustained/ 120 mph gusts

• Corrosion-resistant/weather resistant

• Integrated heater or self-regulated heating element to prevent ice accumulation

• Compatible with Power over Ethernet (PoE)

• Supports encrypted video streams and centralized management

• Glare/AC Reflective handling and Automatic exposure control for high-glare reflective surfaces

• Justification: Provides high-detail recording suitable for identification purposes in fixed exterior locations exposed to harsh environmental conditions.

D. 1 ea Network Video Recorder

• Salient Characteristics:

• System must be FIPS-validated

• Minimum of 64TB usable storage

• Rack-mountable

• Supports centralized video recording and playback

• Compatible with Windows Server

• Must support all camera types simultaneously

• Storage must support minimum 30 continuous days recording at camera resolution

• Must allow export of video in standard formats (MP4/AVI)

• Must allow timestamp and watermarking for evidentiary use

• Justification: DoD cybersecurity policies mandate FIPS compliance for the storage and processing of surveillance data.

E. Video Management Software

• Salient Characteristics:

• Per-channel camera licensing

• Provides centralized configuration and monitoring

• Role-based access control

• Supports future expansion

• Includes a support and upgrade plan

• Justification: Ensures scalability, long-term maintainability, and centralized control across the entire system.

F. Network Infrastructure

• Salient Characteristics:

• Managed Gigabit PoE+ switch that is DISA-approved / DoD-authorized

• Minimum of 24 PoE ports

• Minimum total PoE budget to meet all connected device needs

• CAT5E cabling for all camera runs minimum

• Justification: This infrastructure is required to support multiple high-bandwidth video streams while maintaining network security and reliability standards.

G. Power Delivery

• Salient Characteristics:

• 22 ea PoE injectors compliant with the IEEE 802.3bt (90W) standard

• Single-port, high-power output

• Specifically compatible with the required cameras

• Compatible with backup power systems And automatic restart after power loss

• Justification: High-power cameras require power levels exceeding standard PoE to simultaneously operate heaters, motors, and IR illuminators in cold environments.

H. Mounting & Accessories

• Salient Characteristics:

• Includes all necessary pendant mounts, wall arms, and adapters

• Outdoor-rated covers and illuminator accessories

• Mounting hardware rated for high-vibration environments
