About this file
This Statement of Objectives (SOO) is for Misawa TCF BERT Upgrades, focusing on expanding the port capabilities of existing TB5800 units. The upgrade aims to provide dual 100gb fiber testing and diagnostic capabilities, including an Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) module. Key technical requirements include offering state-of-the-art hardware and software components available to commercial customers, with mandatory provisions for providing updates, maintaining OEM warranties, and ensuring product genuineness.
The document specifies detailed requirements for contractors, including provisions for authorized resellers, remanufactured/refurbished products, and warranty terms. Delivery requirements indicate a Routine OCONUS delivery, with specific instructions for handling backorders and notification of potential delays. Inspection and acceptance will be managed by government officials, with TSgt Woody and SrA Chang designated as the primary and alternate points of contact, respectively. The upgrade will enable single-unit loopback testing at 40ge/100ge speeds and provide redundancy for port operations.

SOO/TRP for Misawa TCF BERT Upgrades
1. Purpose
1.1. This upgrade is to expand the port capabilities of the existing TB5800 units for dual 100gb fiber testing and diagnostic capabilities as well as to obtain an expansion module to accommodate Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer capabilities. What this upgrade would provide us is the capability to do single-unit loopback testing at 40ge/100ge speeds and provide redundancy in the event one of the available ports becomes unresponsive. The OTDR module will be used to verify fiber characteristics and measure impedance of transmissions while utilizing the TB5800’s advanced interface for data collection.
2. Technical Contractual Requirements
2.1. Technical Refresh
In order to ensure new design enhancements and technological updates or advances, the contractor shall offer, under this SOO, hardware and software components available to the contractor's commercial customers.
