2.0 Technical Specifications:

The solution shall be composed of seven total video wall systems, hereafter referred to as "video displays," and must meet the following criteria:

2.1 Physical Infrastructure:

o The primary OPS floor video wall will consist of six (6) individual video displays mounted, or standalone, along a single “north” wall.

o The maximum dimensions for the total useable video display area are 98 feet in width and 4 feet 1 inches. Please use ref fig 4.1 for more details.

o The total wall height is 8 feet 4 inches.

o There are seven (7) rows of desks on the OPS floor, referred to as "pods".

o There are two (2) desks along the “north” wall of the OPS floor, referred to as “controller desks”.

o There will be a separate video wall integrating two GFE Displays and one camera for the conference room #105.

2.2 Display and Readability:

o Each of the six video wall displays must be capable of displaying four distinct images simultaneously.

• This can be achieved either through four separate, integrated screens per pod or a single large screen with picture-in-picture (quadrant) functionality.

o All content displayed on video walls or displays must meet a minimum readability standard.

• The requested standard is that 24-point Times New Roman font must be clearly legible from a distance of 170 inches.

• 4K Resolution o All video wall or displays will need to be 1 inch removed from the drop ceiling and restricted to 50 inches from the floor (in only 1 case would the restriction be higher and that’s 53 inches).

o Displays will be required to either be stand-alone without load bearing support from the wall or capable of being mounted on the “false/interior” wall with stud spacing of 16in apart on the operations floor. If the choosing to mount the OPS controller displays, the “South” wall requires a 1-inch Marine grade plywood, 4 feet by 8 feet, to mount the displays and these need to be secured using the studs in the wall. Any planned perforation of the false wall for the A/V solution will require the contractor to provide documentation indicating where the perforation of the false wall will occur and submission of the documentation shall be 30-60 days prior to commencement of A/V solution install. The government reserves the right to deny perforation of the false wall if documentation and request is not received within the allotted window, and no perforation of the wall will occur unless prior approval has been granted from the contracting officer.

2.3 Connectivity and Control:

o The video wall system shall be a closed-loop AV over IP fiber solution.

o Each of the first 6 pods on the OPS floor will consist of at least four operator stations with the 7th pod containing two operator stations.

• Each operator station will be connected to a Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) KVM switch.

• Single output of the GFE KVM switch will be a source for input into the video display.

• Total count of input sources from each pod will be four (4) separate HDMI sources onto each pod’s specific video display.

• When a single source is displayed in a large format across a video wall, that source may originate from any of the available inputs within that pod's operator stations.

• There will be no need for additional input sources outside of the 29 operator stations. The total breakdown is as follows: total of 6 pods with 4 operator stations equaling to 24 operator stations, 3 controller stations on 2 controller desks, and 1 not aligned pod with 2 operator stations. Total numbers is 29 stations with desktop computers.

o The two (2) controller desks, located on the “north” OPS floor wall, with a total of two

(2) workstations per desk, will house a total of three (3) control stations, with two (2) on one desk, and one (1) on the other. Please use ref fig 4.2 for more details.

• These control stations must have the ability to project content to any or all display quadrants across all six OPS floor video displays.

• The Conference room video display, located in room 105, will have two control stations as input source and shall integrate GFE displays and camera.

Additionally, the controller should be able to push the same audio to all speakers or in-ceiling speakers should the need arise. Normal use will only require the audio for the specific pods to be heard. Government prefers speaker systems at the operator and controller stations but is friendly to in-ceiling option so long as the audio is restricted as previously stated and does not cross/bleed over to adjacent rooms. Important to note none of the operator stations have speakers ingregrated or currently connected to them; however, each workstation has a line out available for external speakers to be connected.
