Optical Amplifiers
This notice announces a proposed sole-source contract action to procure two FiberLabs bench-top optical amplifiers (O-band and C+L-band) from Ogmentum, Inc., the exclusive North American distributor, because other vendors' products do not meet the essential output and gain requirements. The required amplifiers must meet specific performance specs, including +23 dBm max output for the O-band, +22 dBm for the C+L-band, minimum +40 dB gain, noise figure below 7 dB, and FC/APC connectors. This is not a request for quotations, but responsible sources may submit capability statements or proposals demonstrating clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous; submissions must be made by the date/time listed on the notice. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 30 September 2026.
