Document Para./ Section Questions/Comments

(1)

Q: For SOW task 5.1.1, it states Vendor shall provide and install twenty (20) Student work centers that shall have at minimum 6-foot Bar as a top to each Work Center. Is this a support bar or a small shelf that sits several inches above the main work center top?

Government Response: Sits above the main work center top.

(2)

Q: Can an example picture be provided showing what the student work center and 6-foot Bar should look like?

Government Response: We don’t have any photo’s available but in short, the monitor stand and/or bar should be the length of the table and sit around 4” – 6” or more above the actual student table.

(3)

Q: For SOW task 4.1.3, it states Vendor shall reutilize existing couplers at all network termination locations. I believe this was meant to say Vendor shall reutilize existing floor boxes with new couplers at all termination locations.

Please confirm.

Government Response: Yes – with a caveat. If the existing coupler is completely serviceable, I have no issue reusing

it. However, if it is no longer usable, replace it. My preferred action is to replace all of them with MAX JACKS.

(4)

Q: For SOW task 2.1.4, it states Vendor shall provide and install one (1) 12 outlet SurgeX Suppressor (or equivalent) per network cabinet. Neither SurgeX nor Zero Surge suppressors make 12 outlet 1RU units. Will 10 outlet surge protectors work for the small cabinets?

Government Response: 10 Outlet will work perfectly.

(5) Q: Network Drops: How many drops are planned per location? Specifically, is it two drops per network per location, totaling 48 drops per network?

Government Response: Every Unclass and Classified box will have a QUAD data jackset.

(6)

Q: Objective 3 - Fiber Length: Could the Government please provide the total length of fiber required for the installation?

Government Response: We don’t have that exact information. My best guess would be 100ft from Comm Room to Classroom. 250 feet from Antenna Pad to Comm Room. Keep in mind, this is just a best guess.

(7)

Q: Objective 5 - Student Work Center: Could the Government please provide more detailed information regarding the student work center setup?

Government Response: Good sturdy 72x30 table with a top bar or monitor shelf. No wheels. What other information is needed?

(8) Q: Ceiling Specifications: Could the Government please confirm the ceiling heights and ceiling types within Building RR425?
