***THIS IS NOT A MODIFICATION***THIS IS A SPECIAL NOTICE********DUE TO A TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY IN UPLOADING THE COMJBINED SYNOPSIS/SOLICITATION, THE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ARE LISTED BELOW:General 1. Clarify what you mean by “control of video using existing ISDN lines”? ANS: The VTC should be able to work with the existing ISDN lines. 2. What are all the “security concerns” mentioned in section A. 1. (d)? ANS: If a wireless solution is proposed encryption is needed. 3. What “existing equipment” is there as mentioned in section A. 1.(g)?ANS: DEA currently has this equipment installed. 1. Barco 6300 for rear projection 2. Dish Network model 1000 3. Drake VM2550 modulator 4. TOA AX-1000A 5. Marantz PMD501 Tape deck 6. JVC HRS7100U (SVHS VCR) 7. Panasonic AG-7350 8. Pioneer LD-V4200 9. Inline IN1422 (scan doubler) 10. Crown Com Tech 200 11. Crown Com Tech 400 12. Crown D-75 13. QSC 1100 (stereo amp) 14. Two (2) JBL left and right speakers (Big boxes) We will replace these. 15. Ashly CL52E 16. Ashly CL50E 17. Rane ME60 (graphic EQ) 18. Rane ME30 19. Rane PE15 20. Sony CDP-C445 (CD player carousel) 21. Yamaha TX950 (AM/FM tuner) 22. Auto Patch Distribution Matrix 23. AMX PS4.2 24. AMX cards and multiple card slots still open 25. AMX AXP EL+ (this is mounted in the lectern, but customer wants this to go away and be replaced by a wireless touch panel) 26. AMX 64 button wireless control (customer wants this to go away. Customer says they have the existing AMX programming). 27. EV-500AF (Visual Presenter) 4. What standard of VTC do you wish to use as you primary connectivity? (H.323,H.320, H.321) ANS: H.323 5. Are you anticipating using a Gateway? ANS: Not at this time. 6. Clarify what you mean by mixed network? (Are you referring to multiple types of VTC endpoints?) ANS: Current project utilizes ISDN. Growth later may include the multiple types listed in SOW. 7. Do you want each endpoint to have direct/physical access to the IP LAN and ISDN lines? ANS: No IP LAN. VTC calls will be placed with ISDN lines. 8. Is there already a VTC solution in place? (If so, will it remain? & What type is it?) ANS: No 9. Is the network already in place to support the VTC solution you are requesting? (i.e. leased lines & network equipment) ANS: Leased Lines 10. Are you requesting to implement Voice Conferencing into a VTC call? ANS: Yes 11. Are you anticipating more than the 5 sites listed for VTC Endpoints? ANS: We anticipate a minimum of 5 sites. 12. Are you anticipating an appliance MCU (i.e. Accord MGC) or to use a CODEC based MCU? ANS: No 13. Any VTC encryption required? No 14. Is this a classified network? ANS: We are not utilizing our existing newtwork. 15. Where is the SOW referenced in the Provisions? ANS: Statement of Work 16. Is the 90 days delivery, to begin the actual work or to have it all completed? ANS: Completed 17. Will the Test acceptance scenarios be performed on the current live network? ANS: Yes on the VTC system. 18. Will other room dynamics information be made available, other than pictures? ANS: After viewing pictures, they may be available on request. (i.e. measurements & wall materials) Ft. Worth Site 1. How do you intend to use the single CODEC for two rooms? (One room in a VTC at a time, both rooms in the same VTC, or one room in a VTC with the other being used with other A/V equipment?) ANS: One of the two will utilize the VTC system at one time. The existing equipment will not be shared. Regional Sites 1. Clarify when you say the CODEC “shall connect to an ISDN, Ethernet/LAN, V.35,T1, and ATM system”. Are you referring to physically or logically? ANS: ISDN is the communication in place. The other types of connections are possibly for future deployments. 2. Is the statement made “maximum data rate H.323 or 768kbps” accurate? ANS: H.323, 768 kpbs 3. No camera specs were given. ANS: A compact solution of VTC is needed for Regional Sites. 4. No touch panel integration required for regional sites? ANS: No 5. No encryption for audio required for regional sites? ANS: No
