(1) ea. p/n: 135361 DirecTV LNB TextField: The equipment being procured will be utilized for TV-DTS antenna system. This antenna system with fiber optic interface is a unique one of a kind system in several aspects. All weight and moments related to location have been calculated and approved for the installation of this antenna system. This was calculated in accordance to its size, weight and placement at the very top of the superstructure. This is a first in its class multi band antenna system, which allows users to receive TV on Global Circular C Band or both Linear and Circular Ku Band satellite services. The QOR architecture incorporated in the antenna system includes two high efficiency back fire circular/linear orthogonal antenna systems utilizing a common suite of electronics on the same stabilized pedestal and Digital Antenna Control unit (DAC). This relieves the user from having to change out Low noise block down converter ( LNB ) when changing operational zones of Ku to C Band reception. This also reduces the number of antenna systems required topside. With this advance capability forward deploying units will be able to receive Armed Forces Radio & Television broadcast anywhere in the world. The brand name equipment falls under the Coast Guard Program Office, CG-9335. The equipment is evaluated, documented, integrated, inspected, tested for compliance and acceptance criteria in accordance with the Coast Guard Program Office, CG-9335.

The brand name items are required in order to be compatible with the form, fit and function of the existing configuration antenna system. Any deviation to the Coast Guard Program Office, CG-9335 would require new operational testing and changes to the following program documents: Size, Weight, Power, and Stability calculation shipboard Installation drawings. The extra manpower costs and time to perform such additional work could cost in excess of $500,000.00 as well as an estimated 350 additional labor hours to re-certify the current antenna system. The required equipment underwent substantial testing to certify unique parts. Switching to another manufacturer(s) would also deviate from the approved Defence Media Agency requirements and would delay the installation of required antenna system.
