Description

AFLCMC/C3NA is seeking information on a high-performance server to be used on datalink gateway systems. The vendor should be able to support various quantities ranging from a minimum of 20 servers up to 100. These servers will also need a 1553 card* installed as part of the complete procurement as the server will host the SPIDR (Scalable Portable Integrated Data Router) gateway manager and WINTAK map display software. SPIDR software receives, translates, converts, filters, records and forwards datalink message and uses an interactive display to provide real-time geospatial data, running complex simulations with map overlays and rendering 3D models of terrain and infrastructure. This RFI aims to gather information from hardware vendors regarding their offerings, capabilities, and pricing for servers with the appropriate 1553 card installed, that meet or exceed the specified performance requirements.
