Purpose: This requirement is to replace the rectifier bay in APG South (Edgewood BLDG E5103/DCO). This DCO houses the main Voice and Network equipment supporting numerous critical missions and the primary emergency communications center (911 Center) for APG. It also serves as the secondary entrance for the DoDIN. The current Power System at the DCO is an AT & T Technologies' Lineage System installed sometime in February 1988. The configuration consists of seven 200AMP rectifiers. One of the seven 200AMP rectifiers has failed. The critical modules have reached End of Life (EOL) and no replacements are available.

Abbreviated Scope: The current power load for the DC power system in BLDG E5103 is at 980/1200 AMP (~81% utilized) with the remaining six 200AMP rectifiers (load sharing). The current load will not support increased network capacity nor will it support the current Voice and Network infrastructure should another 200AMP rectifier fail.
