About this file
This Statement of Work (SOW) details the National Telecommunications and Information Administration's (NTIA) requirement for programmable attenuators to support device testing for 5G and 6GHz cellular networks. The Institute for Telecommunication Sciences (ITS) seeks hardware with specific technical specifications, including a rack-mountable or shelf-compatible chassis with programmable attenuators that have a single USB controller connection, a minimum 60dB dynamic range (90dB preferred), 0.5dB maximum step range, and compatibility with 2x2 MIMO (8 attenuation paths). The system must support testing LTE and 5G devices up to 6GHz and include a Windows OS-based programmable GUI control with API.
The contract is a firm fixed-price procurement, with delivery requested within 16 weeks after receipt of order to support ongoing measurement activities and FY25 project planning. The hardware will be delivered to NTIA.ITS at 325 Broadway in Boulder, Colorado (Building 1, Room 2226). The broader context involves ITS's mission to provide research and development support for NTIA, addressing telecommunications challenges for federal agencies, state and local governments, private corporations, and international organizations, with a focus on creating telecommunications standards that support U.S. communications and information technology competitiveness.

STATEMENT OF WORK
Mountable Shelf and Programmable Attenuators for 5G and 6GHz Device Testing
U.S. Department of Commerce
National Telecommunications and Information Administration Institute for Telecommunication Sciences
1. BACKGROUND
The Institute for Telecommunication Sciences (ITS) provides research and development support for the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) by performing basic research in radio science that provides the technical foundation for NTIA’s policy development and spectrum management activities, as well as solves telecommunications challenges for other Federal agencies, state and local Governments, private corporations and associations, and international organizations.
Additionally, ITS addresses emerging telecommunications, information technology, and security challenges and contributes to the creation of telecommunications standards that support the full and fair competitiveness of the U.S. communications and information technology business sectors.
2. OBJECTIVE
NTIA.ITS requires a programmable attenuator that is compatible with a 2x2 MIMO RF shield box previously purchased. This testing setup will be used to test handovers on 5G cellular network devices that must operate up to 6GHz.
3. REQUIREMENTS
NTIA.ITS requires the following hardware:
1. Attenuators will be installed in a chassis that is rack mountable or placed on a shelf
2. Programmable attenuators
a. Single PC controller connection point (USB)
b. Dynamic Range: 60dB minimum, 90dB preferred
c. Step range: 0.5dB max
3. Compatible two channels of 2x2 MIMO (8 attenuation paths).
4. Capable of testing LTE or 5G devices up to 6GHz
5. Windows OS based programmable GUI control + API 6.
4. PLACE OF PERFORMANCE
Hardware shall be delivered to NTIA.ITS, 325 Broadway, Boulder 80305; Building 1 room 2226.
5. DELIVERABLE SCHEDULE
Delivery requested within 16 weeks after Receipt of Order, to preclude any significant delay of ongoing measurement activities and associated FY25 project planning.
6. TYPE OF CONTRACT: Firm fixed price
