STATEMENT OF NEED

FOR

TCCI Jumbo Switch 14 July

GENERAL – PART 1

GENERAL: This statement of need (SON) defines the scope of equipment specifications for the TC Communications Inc (TCCI) Jumbo Switch. The switch is a fiber system used to multiplex and de-multiplex voice to remote transmitter/receivers for air traffic control of aircraft at Luke AFB. The existing equipment is no longer supported by the manufacturer or any known manufactures. Air Force Facility Standards Agency (AFFSA) has selected the TCCI Jumbo Switch as the standard equipment replacement for ATC in the Air Force.

PRODUCTS / TECHNICAL – PART II

2.1 Contractor shall provide a TCCI Jumbo Switch with 36 channels.

2.1.1 Size and Quantity Requirements

HQ AFFSA is establishing a requirement to standardize the fiber optic transport equipment. The TC8000 series fiber optic transport and TC3800 series JumboSwitch equipment manufactured by TC Communications Inc provides the required solution. It meets all requirements for interconnectivity over fiber optics and postures our systems for eventual migration to the Defense Information Systems Network (DISN).
