3. Conduits: MaxCell 3-way Inner Duct system will be used throughout the Manhole Duct System and Plenum Rated Inner Duct will be used from the Bldg. entry point to the termination point.

4. Fiber Optic Cable: Shielded, Single Mode Loose Tube Fiber Optic outside type cable will be used in the Manhole Duct System. Splices are to be done with Fusion Method Splicing and FODPs or Terminals are to use Single Mode LC connections unless otherwise specified.

5. Buried Cable Installation - Bore under paved surfaces and trench around ends of runways, unless the otherwise specifically identified conduits/ducts available (are to be used). Boring under runways and trenching across paved surfaces is prohibited unless written permission is obtained. Install buried cable in conduit under paved surfaces. The conduit(s) installed under road surfaces shall extend three feet on each side of the road. Direct-buried cables, as well as conduits/ducts, will be installed at a minimum depth of 36 inches. When the depth requirements cannot be met due to underground obstacles, which cannot be overcome or bypassed, the contractor will enclose the cable in conduit/duct and bury in a 6-inch concrete encasement. Concrete encasement is not required where cable is placed in metal conduits and installed under paved surfaces. Where a trench contains buried cable or conduits/ducts in any combination of two or more, each will be installed such that it: (1) is separated from other communication cables and conduits/ducts by a minimum of three inches of sand or screened earth free of stone and sharp debris. (2) Does not intertwine or cross over other cables or conduit/duct except at points where their paths diverge, (3) maintains the minimum depth requirements, and (4) is separated from power cables or conduits/ducts containing power cable IAW ANSI C2-1997. All trenches for outdoor cable installations involving direct-buried or underground cable will be provided with cable warning tape. Tape will be buried one foot below the surface and will follow the cable route. Customers will need to provide a signed AF 332 from Civil Engineering and completed AF 443 prior to work being accomplished.

6. Distribution System Design. The cable distribution system shall be designed to be “fixed count” (dedicated). Bridge taps and other multiple connections shall not be utilized. Unless specified, both ends of all cable pairs (and optic fibers) shall be spliced or terminated.

7. Surface Restoration - The contractor shall be responsible for surface restoration. Restoration includes back filling, soil compacting, reseeding, repaving, or any other necessary material and services required to restore surfaces to their original condition. Perform follow-up surface restoration if location is not up to its original condition within 30 days due to surface settling, lack of turf germination, or seeding.

8. Boring – Boring provides a method to install a 4-inch conduit underground without disturbing the surface. On a per foot (/FT) basis, the boring effort shall include all pits required to support boring equipment. The contractor shall prepare the other end of the bore, as required, to extend the conduit into the subsequent trench or manhole. The contractor shall be responsible for all tools, equipment, labor, and materials to perform the excavation, back fill the excavation, and restore the surface to its original condition.

9. Inside Plant Technician: Provide experienced technician to install and terminate premise wiring, wall jacks, patch panels, and racks/cabinets IAW the National Electric Code (NEC) and Technical Installation Authority (TIA-568B & TIA-568C).

9.1 Premise Wiring: Category 6a (CAT6a) plenum grade Unshielded Twisted Pair will be used and terminated IAW with TIA-568B unless otherwise specified. One end will be terminated at a CAT6a wall jack and the other end will be terminated at a standard CAT6a patch panel for data use or a standard 110 block for voice use. Each wall jack shall typically be an 8 position, 8 wire modular jack type; one to support regular voice & the other to support data. The jacks are to be labeled V# for voice only or D# for data. Patch panels are to be installed on a rack or in a network cabinet. The rack or network cabinet must be lockable with the only keys being under the control of the 4th CS. The cabinets/racks and all installed equipment are to be grounded.

9.1.1 All interior entry holes from room to room where specified are to be sleeved with PVC Schedule 40 Conduit and sealed with foam installation to ensure soundproof integrity.

9.2 Inside Conduit and Duct Installation – Prior approval maybe required from base environmental and civil engineering, for building penetrations and inside building installation to determine potential problems with cable/equipment installation. The Contractor shall not proceed until the Government provides evidence this coordination occurred. Pull boxes will be provided where conduit runs exceed 100 feet or where required to facilitate cable installation. Between any two-pull boxes no more than two 90-degree bends will occur with the sum of all bends not exceeding 270 degrees. Pull boxes will be provided for conduit runs at points where cable or wiring is distributed to other locations. Cable will not enter or leave a pull box without being in conduit. Size the conduit/duct connecting distribution centers. Inner duct will be used for fiber optic cable installed in existing conduits and ducts.

10. Installation and Services - Each job includes activation of the channel path, adjustments for the transmission characteristics, and network build-out balancing.
