Quasonix Receiver / QTY 1

NASA's Shared Services Center seeks to issue a sole source contract to QUASONIX, INC. for one Quasonix Receiver (QSX-RDMS-3R1D-Q0-1100-00-EQ), with capabilities submissions due July 17, 2026. The procurement is conducted under FAR 12.102(a) using Commercial Item procedures, and NASA has determined QUASONIX, INC. to be the sole provider of this equipment.

Place of performance is NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center, Edwards Air Force Base, California. The receiver is a dual-channel 1U rack-mounted Third-Generation RDMS (Telemetry Receiver/Demodulator/Synchronizer) featuring four 262k-color 2.4-inch TFT displays, a 25-button keypad, and graphics capabilities including eye pattern, constellation, and spectrum displays. The system operates across four frequency bands tuned in 1Hz steps: Lower L-band (1435.5–1534.5 MHz), Upper L-band (1750–1850 MHz), S-band (2200.5–2394.5 MHz), and C-band (4400–5150 MHz). It supports ARTM Tier 0 (PCM/FM) at 24 kbps to 23 Mbps and ARTM Tier I (SOQPSK-TG) at 100 kbps to 46 Mbps, with space-time coding demodulation and LDPC decoder capability for SOQPSK-TG. The selected configuration includes an Adaptive Equalizer and dual RF Type N inputs, dual IF BNC inputs, three IF BNC outputs, TTL and RS-422 command/data outputs, one Ethernet RJ-45 port, and automatic gain control outputs. Delivery is required as soon as possible. The NAICS code is 334290 (Other Communications Equipment Manufacturing), and the PSC code is 5805 (Telephone and Telegraph Equipment). Interested organizations may submit capabilities and qualifications in writing to Tracy Bremer, Procurement Specialist, at tracy.g.bremer@nasa.gov by 4:00 p.m. Central Standard Time on July 17 for evaluation of whether to conduct competitive procurement. NASA FAR Supplement Clause 1852.215-84 (Ombudsman) applies.
