This RFP is for 2 buildings being built and will be connected to the County of Wayne network. At the New County Jail roll piping will be installed between an existing pipe and a hand hole down the street from that location. A new 48-strand single-mode fiber will be installed between the data room inside the building and the hand hole on Stronach Ave. At the hand hole, the 48 strands will be fusion spliced to the existing 144 stand fiber using buffer tubes 7-8. Inside the building, the 48-strand single mode will terminate into a fiber enclosure inside the data room on plywood. SC connectors will be used in the enclosure. See section 21.2 for more details. At the DSS/Health Building a 4" conduit has been installed from the inside data room to a hand hole near the parking lot. The conduit has a mule tape installed. It then continues to another hand hole 30 feet away and finally into a 4" conduit that goesinto the 911 Center data room. You will then install 60-strand singlemode fiber between the 2 buildings. In the DSS/Health building, you will terminate the fiber in a wallmounted fiber enclosure that you provide on plywood. SC connectors will be used in this enclosure. In the 911 Center, you will supply the required cassettes that will work in the existing enclosure and then terminate the fiber in the cassettes. SC connectors will be used at this location. See section 21.1 for more details. After both projects are completed, each strand of fiber between the buildings will be tested and certified with the results provided to the County of Wayne IT Project Coordinator.
