About this file

This is a Questions and Answers document for solicitation H92421-25-Q-0001, which pertains to USB-C to ODU cables for the 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne).

The Q&A clarifies several key technical and administrative details: The cable must have adjustable two-way connection capability with power being agnostic of direction, though the End User Device (EUD) will primarily receive data/power. The cable must be weatherproof by itself, without requiring additional cases. The end user devices are various Samsung Galaxy models (S22 and later). The requirement is for the Department of Defense, specifically SOCOM, and will be delivered to Fort Campbell, Kentucky. This is a commercial purchase, not a Foreign Military Sale or DPAS-rated requirement. There is no existing L3 Harris part number that meets the specifications. The cable specifications are controlled by manufacturers and no government diagrams or drawings are available. All invoicing will be processed through Wide Area Workflow, and the equipment will not be exported from the United States.
