NASA/MSFC has a requirement for the multi-channel interface module, PCIE4L-1553-4D-002, multi-channel interface module, PCIE4L-1553-4F-A-002, and 1553 cable assembly, SCSI-1553-4-AUX01 in support of the avionics system testing and development within the Integrated Avionics Test Facilities (IATF) labs which includes the System Integration Labs (SIL), the Software Development Facilities (SDF), and the System Integration Test Facilities (SITF). The PCIE4L-1553 interface modules and cable assemblies are proprietary to Alta Data Technologies. Alta Data Technologies designs, manufactures, and sells the PCIE4L-1553 interface modules and cable assemblies. They are the sole manufacturer and North American distributor.  The AltaDT PCIE4L-1553 interface modules provide four channels of dual redundant MIL-STD-1553 with dual function Bus Controller/Monitor (BC/Mon) or Multi Remote Terminal/ Monitor (mRT/Mon) capability. These interface modules come with the proprietary advanced, modular software package, AltaAPI TM. AltaDT products are deployed throughout the IATF labs, test and development lines with an established compatibility with the real-time operating system computers, other hardware, and written software code that must be maintained.

NASA/MSFC intends to procure these items from Alta Data Technologies (AltaDT) on a sole source basis.
