1.0 SCOPE.

This Performance Work Statement (PWS) defines the requirements for the Contractor to engineer, furnish, install and test (EFI&T) new 2-way, 4” manhole/duct-bank infrastructure and 288 strands of single mode fiber optic cable from B949 to Critical Node (CN) B1185 then from (CN) B1185 to (CN) B870 at Osan Air Base, Republic of Korea.

2.0 REQUIREMENTS.

This requirement requires a minor adjustment for B1185 fiber expansion which will allow redundant CN support and eliminate the bottleneck bandwidth currently supported from this CN.

Currently the CN at B1185 supports 31 buildings and over 1400 (1488) users and is unable to support the CDNs and CANs that rely on the CN residing at B1185 due to saturation of current

OSP.

ITN Fiber Expansion B1185 – 870 3Q2019 1 Gig pipe coming in and out

31 Buildings

1400 + users

2.00 Mbps Download Speed mean (3 tests)

1.19 Mbps Upload Speed mean (3 tests)

213 Ms Ping Speed Average (3 tests)

If ½ of the users are logged in at one time and are utilizing the internet and downloading an attachment or opening up a webpage or new tab, they would surpass the existing infrastructure’s backbone capacity by 400 Mbps (or 400%) resulting in a perceived “throttled” internet connection and degraded connectivity impacting their mission.

2.1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS.

2.1.1 Safety Requirements.

The contractor shall remain in compliance with all Federal, State, county, and base security and safety laws, regulations, policies, and requirements.

2.1.1.1 Site Coordination.

Line One: A = Armored Sheath (otherwise leave blank) 288 = Fiber Count. L = Loose Tube

Buffer or (T) Tight Tube Buffer. 8.3 = Single Mode. F = Filled core (otherwise leave blank).

Lines Two, Three, Four: 699-871 = From-To Building numbers. 1-12 = Cable/strand Count.

2.2.2.10 Cable Terminations.

Newly installed fiber optic cables shall be terminated on new fiber optic distribution panels using fusion spliced pigtails with LC connectors or LC fusion splice direct connectors.

2.2.2.10.1 Backboards.

Newly installed backboards shall be AF-standard 0.75”-thick plywood, with two coats of white, fire-resistant paint.

2.2.2.11 FOC Maintenance Loop.

The Contractor shall install a minimum of a 50 foot fiber optic cable maintenance loop at the first

MH from the building, at each splice point MH location and at every third manhole. The maintenance loop shall be properly labeled and securely supported by two cable hooks. Cable hooks are to be positioned so the highest one supports the underside of the top of the coil and the bottom hook supports the underside of the bottom of the coil.

2.2.2.12 New Maintenance Holes/Hand-holes.

Maintenance holes installed under this Task Order shall have an American Association of State

Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) rating of H-20 or equivalent. Unless otherwise stated, HHs shall have a minimum interior dimension of 4’W x 4’L x 4’H or 3’W x 5’L x 4’H.

HHs shall be furnished with cable racks and a grounding system. It is understood that some

Maintenance Holes are precast with bonding ribbons or some similar connection, to the manhole rebar and therefore do not require a ground rod. This method of grounding in lieu of a ground rod is satisfactory just as long as the achieved impedance to ground is twenty five (25) ohms or less.

HHs shall meet the requirements of TIA -758B, paragraph 5.2.2. Prefabricated HHs are preferred.

HH shall be installed so that they are reasonably level on a gravel bed of 6 inches to allow drainage of water from the walls. The gravel bed should extend 8 inches to 12 inches beyond the outer edges of the MH/HH. MH/HH covers shall be labeled with 1/8” raised letters stating

“COMMUNICATIONS”.

necessary to properly bond/ground the cable in MHs/HHs shall be provided.

2.2.2.13 Underground Conduit System.

Page | 14

The Contractor shall be responsible for any required trenching and/or boring necessary to lay the duct system. Contractor is also responsible for backfilling ditch lines and compaction of fill materials with appropriate compaction tools. Provide a minimum of 12" cover of clean fill above the conduit. Backfill material shall be clean and free from all organic material, clay, marl or unstable materials, debris, lumps, or broken paving. No rocks or stones larger than 3 inches in diameter shall be allowed in backfill. Material for backfill may be material resulting from excavation, if it meets the above requirements. Directional drilling will be used for major road crossings. Otherwise, crossing of paved surfaces may be performed by pavement cuts and resurfacing with appropriate matching road material. This does not prevent the Contractor from using directional drilling if it is more cost effective. Ducts will be appropriately protected when placed under paved surfaces.

2.2.2.13.1 Composition.

The ducts shall be corrosion resistant and 4-inch inside diameter (I.D.) round or metric equivalent.

The ducts shall be made of EPC-40 Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) (Schedule 40) IAW NEMA TC-2;

or EPC-80-PVC (Schedule 80) IAW NEMA TC-2; or high density polyethylene (HDPE) SIDR

13.5 Schedule 80 PVC shall be limited to risers all above ground conduit and under the roadway/parking pavement. High density polyethylene (HDPE) SIDR 13.5 shall be used when directional boring is used. The ducts shall be appropriately labeled indicating the composition material. Ducts shall have a sleeve or bell end type coupling and shall be watertight when assembled.

Flexible fabric innerduct(Maxcell or equivalent) will be used for base communication duct system to enables it to take the shape of the cables, allowing more cables to be placed within a conduit.
