2.2.12.3 Geospatial Deliverables.

The Contractor shall collect and record geospatial data and provide as-built documentation (shape files) of all new installed maintenance hole/duct system components and new cable components (including metadata) compatible with the Cyberspace Infrastructure Planning System (CIPS) Visualization Component (CVC) drawing system. Data points shall be recorded at the center of each manhole/hand-hole lid and at intervals not to exceed 25 feet along cable routes. Sufficient data points shall be recorded to capture any change in direction along the route. All GPS coordinates shall have +/- 3 feet accuracy for all readings. The government will review the shape files and transcribe the information to the CVC system. Provide geospatial data via CD as Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) Shape files.

The Contractor shall conduct on-site testing IAW OEM's installation manuals, practices and the appropriate vendor's test procedures. The Contractor shall furnish all test equipment and personnel required to conduct all required testing. During any testing phase, the Government reserves the right to perform any of the contractor performed inspections and tests to assure solutions conform to prescribed requirements. The Contractor shall provide on-site support during the acceptance testing. The Contractor shall participate with the Government in testing the complete communications system. When any system, subsystem, component or requirement test fails to meet the requirements of the test, Government acceptance and payment will be withheld until such time as the cause of the failure is corrected to the

Government's satisfaction. After appropriate corrective action has been taken, all tests including those previously completed, related to the failed test and the corrective action shall be repeated and successfully completed prior to Government acceptance.

2.2.13.1.1 Fiber Optic Tests.

All strands of all fiber optic cables shall be tested in accordance with TIA 526-7-

A, Measurement of Optical Power Loss of Installed Single-mode Fiber Cable Plant, or equivalent. As a minimum, the following tests shall be performed. Both Optical

Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) and Optical Power Meter tests will be used for all end-to-end circuits. Between FODPs, bi-directional testing at 1310 nm and 1550 nm is required. For incomplete circuits that end in Maintenance Holes, only one-way

OTDR testing is required.
