1. Do all 16 access-controlled doors require PROX card entry from outside, or are any “exit only”?

All 35 doors will require proxy card entry. The proxy cards must have the ability to have pictures and information printed on the card stock.

1. Do any of the 16 access-controlled doors require an alarm and/or an exit delay?

Yes. A time delay will be required.

1. Based on the drawings provided, it appears there is a main building with multiple secondary buildings, including two marked off-site (84551 & 51101).

4. How are these buildings (and floors within buildings) connected as far as network infrastructure for the CCTV and Access Control systems?

Both building 84551 and 51101 are single floor buildings. Each building has CAT6 copper connecting to PoE switches for connectivity for the CCTV and access control system. The individual buildings have single mode fiber with multiple cross connect points back to building 45001. The cross-connect points between both Bldg. 51101 and Bldg. 84551 back to the main hospital, Bldg. 45001 are managed by the Network Enterprise Center (NEC). The site can coordinate with the NEC to make the necessary cross-connects so a path is available upon installation.

4. If existing fiber is present, where does that fiber terminate in each building and what connectors are used (ST/SC/LC, etc)?

There is existing SMF in each building that connects it back to the main hospital, Bldg. 45001. At the patch panel the terminating connection at 84551, 51101, and 45001 is SC. The cross-connect points between both Bldg. 51101 and Bldg. 84551 back to the main hospital, Bldg. 45001 are managed by the Network Enterprise Center (NEC).
