Performance Work Statement (PWS) for

Land Mobile Radio – Hawaii Microwave Link

At Mauna Loa Observatory to Pohakuloa Training Area

1.0 PERFORMACE OF WORK: Pacific Land Mobile Radio – Hawaii (PLMR-HI) requires a contractor with qualified personnel to remove and replace existing microwave radio links. Between Pohakuloa Training Area (PTA) to Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO) the servicer will procure, install, test and document, the microwave link on the Big Island of Hawaii. The link will provide connectivity between the land mobile radio repeater and console sites and the Land Mobile Radio - Hawaii (LMR-HI) master site.

2.0 Task: The contractor shall provide all the necessary qualified personnel, materials, and equipment to support this effort.

2.1 The contractor will perform all the require task necessary to complete the following description of the work:

a) Procure and install microwave radio hardware for link between Pohakuloa

Training Area (PTA) to Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO).

b) Microwave performance:

- Link throughput shall provide data transfer with a bit error rate of 10E-06 or better.

- Link throughput shall provide data availability of 99% reliability.

d) Antenna reuses highly recommended when possible.

e) Any antennas replacements must be mounted on their respective towers in a manner that they will remain correctly pointed through a category 3 hurricane or stronger.

f) Configure, optimize and test microwave link.

f) Remove and dispose of trash and waste resulting from microwave site prep and installation.
