About this file
This document contains questions and answers regarding Solicitation Number FA481423TF137 for a Secondary Crash Net system. The federal agency seeking this system is the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command. All 30 required ports must support phone systems with push-to-talk capabilities. While analog phones were initially suggested to utilize existing fiber ports, digital phones connected via media converters would also be acceptable provided the converters are reliable and all phones could be replaced. Sixteen phones are needed initially with the potential for eight additional agencies, requiring up to 24 phones total. Desktop phones are preferred over wall-mounted phones.

FA481423TF137 – Secondary Crash Net Questions & Answers
1. Q: Does it have to be a total IP/SIP solution or will there be any analog endpoints?
A: Analog, as we will be utilizing fiber ports.
2. Q: Will we be leveraging an existing phone system or switch, or is this a completely standalone solution?
A: Completely standalone system.
3. Q: Are you looking for a total IP/SIP solution or will the endpoints all be Analog?
A: Analog, as we will be utilizing fiber ports.
4. Q: Specifications indicate there are 30 ports required, are all of them going to be phones, or will some of them be sirens, strobe lights, PA system, etc. Can you describe them? (For example; 25 phones, 1 siren, 3 strobes and 1 PA System).
A: All should be phone systems with push-to-talk capabilities.
5. Q: Are there more than 1 set of preset emergency groups that could be called? (For example; 1 set of numbers for a particular emergency situation and another set of numbers for a different emergency situation) If so, how many groups of numbers are there?
A: We need the same group for all emergencies.
6. Q: Do you need phones supplied? If so, how many? How many Initiator phones will you need?
A: We need all phones supplied. We currently require 16 in total; however, our current system has ports for up to 24 agencies. We would be looking for something similar in the chance that we need to add agencies.
7. Q: Do you prefer wall-mount phones or desk-top phones?
A: Desk-top phones are preferred.
8. Q: We have concerns about Q1 & Q3 regarding analog phones, please clarify with your engineering staff. Our solution has digital phones directly connected to convertors (and therefore doesn’t require any separate digital to analog conversion and hence maintains a digital end-to-end pathway). Is this an acceptable solution?
A: Digital phones are acceptable as long as the media converters are reliable, and all of the phones would need to be replaced. Further, fiber pathways are not currently installed but will be in the future. Please ensure that any quote submitted meets the requirements of the RFQ and all attachments.
