Bit depth/resolution: 16 bits
Measurement speed in samples/sec (S/s): >50 MS/s
Measurement bandwidth: 60 MHz
On-board memory: >1000 MS
Input impedance: Can be software-toggled between 50 Ohms and high impedance (typically >1000 Ohms)
Microwave input connectors: BNC
Network connectivity: Yes, ethernet interface
Chassis/PXIe card or standalone unit: Standalone unit, not a PXIe chassis card

The Government intends to negotiate a sole-source award for this requirement with:
Spectrum Instrumentation Corporation
401 Hackensack Ave
Hackensack, NJ 07601
The Government has determined that no other company can meet all the above-mentioned specifications, most importantly, the combination of 16-bit depth, modular housing with a networkable interface, and a high sampling rate. These specifications are required to support quantum homodyne measurement modules for applications in quantum-enhanced RF sensor networks. For these reasons, the Government has determined Spectrum Instrumentation Corporation to be the sole-source provider of the required items.
This is a notice of proposed contract action and not a request for competitive quotations; however, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement or quote, which shall be considered by the agency. All inquiries should be sent by email to Ashley.Ellinger@us.af.mil. Responses must be submitted by the date/time listed on the notice. Any response to this notice must show clear and convincing evidence that competition would be advantageous to the Government in future procurements.
Responses received will be evaluated; however, a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 30 April 2026.
A Sole Source Justification will be attached to the subsequent Notice of Award in accordance with applicable regulation.
