FA5606-20-Q-2074 Q&A
Question 1
• Can we use another brand immersive/videoconferencing platform (instead of CISCO) which is compliant with the standards H323 and SIP, Multipoint (e.g. Avaya US manufacturer)?
Government Response
No. We keep all our Video Suite Assets both NIPR and SIPR to solely using CISCO products for the main platform pieces (i.e. CISCO Roomkit +P60). The USAFE VOC Hub which administers all the Ramstein and Spangdahlem VTC assets is operating with CISCO Equipment in a totally CISCO Environment. To introduce another manufacturer offers risk of compatibility with the USAFE VOC as well as the incoming SIPR VTC Hub here at bldg. 212.
Question 2
• Can we use another control rooms system also 10 inch touchscreen to control the environment (e.g. Extron US manufacturer)?
Government Response
Yes if it can be integrated into the CISCO Roomkit +P60 components above.
Question 3
• Can we use different video matrix switch (e.g. Extron US manufacturer)?
Government Response
Yes if it can be integrated into the CISCO Roomkit +P60 components above.
Question 4
• Is there an approved product list we need to use/available to find suitable equivalent products?
Government Response
Yes. (We went down this road with the WOC install and had to go to the USAFE VOC for guidance, see attached) We know that the main component (CISCO Roomkit +P60) is approved and being used at many locations on Ramstein and Spangdahlem but outside of that the other components should be on the APL. Not every component is listed on the APLs but that doesn’t mean we can’t use them but we’d still need to have them blessed by at least USAFE VOC.
Question 5
• Can we use different audio installation (e.g. Bose Pro US manufacturer)?
Government Response
Yes if it can be integrated into the CISCO Roomkit +P60 components above.
