Sources Sought for Ethernet Switch

The Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command, Pacific (NAVFAC Pacific) is conducting a market survey to determine if other potential sources of supply can provide Ethernet switches with equal performance and listing/approval requirements as the Cisco 4010-4S24P Ethernet Switch. The required characteristics of the switch include: Form Factor: Rack-mountable, Redundant Power Supply (Primary and Backup), Stackable, Advanced Switching: Layer 3, Manageable, Full compatibility with existing and future ICS/FRCS networks, Minimum Required Protocol Support: CDP, EIGRP, Software-Defined Access compatible, and Trade Agreement Act (TAA) compliant. The key points of this opportunity are: • The switch must be rack-mountable • The switch must have redundant power supply (primary and backup) • The switch must be stackable • The switch must support advanced switching (Layer 3) • The switch must be manageable • The switch must be compatible with existing and future ICS/FRCS networks • The switch must support CDP and EIGRP protocols • The switch must be Software-Defined Access compatible • The switch must be TAA compliant
