Statement of Need (SON)

502 Communications Squadron

JBSA-Lackland SCOW

Equipment Need: Pneumatic Mini Jet Air Blown Fiber Equipment & Training

1. Equipment is required for the new installation of technology as it is being directed.

2. Background: As technology advances with new Fiber cable installations guidelines, we are being directed to move forward by using the jetted fiber installation application.

3. Essential / Salient Characteristics: Currently fiber installed on JBSA (all three locations) is by the old method of pulling cable manually through each maintenance hole and requires many manhours and extra time. It has also been directed by the 38th Engineering and Installation Squadron. Jetted fiber is a faster, less damaging installation method that uses compressed air to propel the fiber optic cable through pre-installed ducts, while fiber pulling is a traditional method that relies on mechanical force (like a winch) to drag the cable through the conduit, resulting in slower speeds and higher stress on the cable. Jetting is ideal for long, complex installations, offering greater flexibility and minimal labor, whereas pulling is better for short, simple runs and can still be a viable option for some scenarios. This equipment will help eliminate manhours and time as this equipment will install the fiber at a much faster rate. This equipment will be available for use at all three locations. Therefore, it is in the best interest of the Government to procure Plumet brand items to maintain the current ISP and OSP fiber infrastructure, save the Government from spending additional money, and avoid unnecessary waste of man hours. Please purchase items required for installing and replacing fiber optic cables that have reached their life span.

Operation Conditions: Equipment will be used for self-help installations, maintenance and repair of fiber cuts.

4. Jetting Certifications/Training: (The contractor shall provide personnel possessing, or a training program delivering, formal jetted fiber installation certification equivalent to industry-recognized programs from SIRC, Light Brigade, Dura-Line Academy, Plumettaz, FiberDK, or the Fiber Optic Association (FOA). The certification must validate specialized training and practical proficiency in the techniques of installing fiber optic cables into microducts utilizing compressed air or water injection methods, commonly referred to as air-blown fiber (ABF) or fiber jetting.)
