About this file
This document is a Statement of Objectives (SOO) for the United States Air Force (USAF) 16th Electronic Warfare Squadron (16EWS) seeking to purchase RF over Fiber (RFoF) boxes for their Mobile System Integration Lab. The specific requirement is for 4 units of an 18GHz RF over Fiber Mini Q SFDR with 1U Rem, 2Tx+2Rx configuration, 30dB Post Amp, SMA and FC connections, USB, and dual AC 110-220V power.
The technical requirements mandate that all Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) products must comply with Air Force Information Assurance (IA) standards, with some products requiring validation under the National Information Assurance Partnership (NIAP) or NIST standards. Key technical specifications include an RF range of 0.01-18 GHz, maximum RF input/output of +10 dBm, RF flatness of +/- 1.5dB, and an operating temperature range of 0-70°C. Additional contractual requirements specify that the contractor must offer the most current "state of the art" technology, ensure Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliance, provide OEM warranties, and deliver the equipment within 60 days after receipt of order.
