- Description
- The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has a requirement for acquisition of Voice Switch Headset and Handset (VSHS) equipment to be used by Air Traffic Control Specialists (ATCS) in the conduct of ATC operations. Headsets and handsets interface with FAA voice communications systems including voice switching systems and backup communications systems providing high quality, intelligible, transmission and reception of Air/Ground (A/G) voice communications over radios and Ground/Ground voice communications over critical telecommunications transport systems from/to the ATCS. Headsets and handsets will be interfacing with both legacy ATC communications systems as well as NextGen voice communications systems. These communications systems provide a standardized connection and power as well as volume and sidetone controls for the headsets and handsets. Voice transmissions from the ATCS using headsets and handsets are enabled by Push To Talk (PTT)signaling. It is anticipated that commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) products are available that meet the FAA ™s specifications (see attached draft specification.) In accordance with 49 U.S.C. 50101, the FAA is subject to the Buy American Act. Acquisition Management System (AMS) Clause 3.6.4.5 Buy American-Steel and Manufactured Products is required to be included in any subsequent contract.
