About this file

This document is a technical specification for Electronic Security Systems (ESS) dated 05/24, specifically focusing on video surveillance system components and installation requirements. The specification provides detailed guidelines for communication systems, video transmission, cabling, and installation procedures, emphasizing compliance with multiple industry standards including NFPA 70, UL safety standards, and Intelligence Community Standard ICS 705-1.

Key technical requirements include using Category 5 ethernet cable for video transmission, installing cables in Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) conduit, performing permanent link testing for all Category 5 cabling, and ensuring cable components can withstand the installation environment for a minimum of 20 years. The specification mandates that all system components must be commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products, NDAA and FAR subpart 4.21 compliant, with manufacturers allowing a network of qualified distributors to sell, install, integrate, maintain, and repair the hardware and software products.

1.3 QUALITY ASSURANCE

1.3.1 Regulatory Requirements

The advisory provisions in each of the publications referred to in this specification are mandatory. Interpret these publications as though the word "must" has been substituted for "should" wherever it appears.

Interpret references in these publications to the "authority having jurisdiction," or words of similar meaning, to mean the Contracting Officer.

Equipment, materials, installation, and workmanship must be in accordance with the mandatory and advisory provisions of NFPA 70 unless more stringent requirements are specified or indicated.

1.3.2 Standard Products

Provide materials and equipment that are products of manufacturers regularly engaged in the production of such products which are of equal material, design and workmanship and:

a. Have been in satisfactory commercial or industrial use for 2 years prior to bid opening and have been utilized in applications of equipment and materials under similar circumstances and of similar size.

b. Have been available on the commercial market through advertisements, manufacturers' catalogs, or brochures during the 2-year period.

c. Where two or more items of the same class of equipment are required, provide products of a single manufacturer.

d. Provide commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products in which the manufacturer allows a network of qualified distributors to sell, install, integrate, maintain, and repair the hardware and software products that make up the system. All products are to be NDAA and FAR subpart 4.21 compliant.

1.3.2.1 Alternative Qualifications

Products having less than a 2 year field service record will be acceptable if a certified record of satisfactory field operation for not less than 6000 hours, exclusive of the manufacturers' factory or laboratory tests, is furnished.

1.3.2.2 Material and Equipment Manufacturing Date

Products manufactured more than one year prior to date of delivery to the site are not acceptable.

1.3.2.3 Product Safety

System components are to conform to applicable rules and requirements of

NFPA 70. Equip system components with instruction stickers including warnings and cautions describing physical safety, and special or important procedures to be followed in operating and servicing system equipment.

1.4 AS-BUILT DRAWINGS

Maintain a separate set of drawings, elementary diagrams, and wiring diagrams of the system to be used for as-built drawings. Keep this set accurately and neatly up to date with all changes and additions. This set is not to be used for installation purposes.

PART 2 PRODUCTS

Connect to and utilize existing equipment, control signal transmission lines, and devices as shown on the drawings. Any equipment and signal lines that are usable in their original configuration without modification may be reused with Government approval.

Make written requests and obtain approval prior to disconnecting any signal lines and equipment that creates equipment outage. Such work can proceed only after receiving Government approval of these requests. If any device fails after work has commenced on that device, signal, or control line, diagnose the failure and perform any necessary corrections to the equipment. The Government is responsible for maintenance and repair of Government equipment. The Contractor will be held responsible for repair costs due to negligence or abuse of Government equipment on their part.
