The Naval Undersea Warfare Center, Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) has issued a brand-name solicitation for Keysight brand test equipment and accessories to support the AN/BLQ-10 systems. This 100% Small Business set-back requirement will result in a firm-fixed-price purchase order evaluated on a Lowest Priced, Technically Acceptable (LPTA) basis. The solicitation lists 21 Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) for FieldFox Microwave Analyzers (50 GHz and 26.5 GHz models), calibration kits, transit cases, cables, torque wrenches, adapters, noise sources, and preamplifiers. Because the Keysight FieldFox is the only approved calibrated test equipment for the AN/BLQ-10, no substitutions are allowed. To be eligible, offerors must be authorized Keysight resellers and submit quotes valid for at least 30 days. All items must be brand new, sourced directly from the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or authorized channels, and shipped from within the United States; gray market and drop-shipped items will be rejected.

This federal procurement document outlines the Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs) and technical specifications for acquiring Keysight FieldFox Microwave Analyzers and associated accessories. The equipment is divided between "SSE" and "Lab" designations and includes two primary analyzer models: a 50 GHz Microwave Analyzer (Part Number N9952B) and a 26.5 GHz Microwave Analyzer (Part Number N9918B). Each analyzer is configured with a comprehensive suite of identical software and hardware add-ons. These include pre-delivery Keysight calibration with uncertainties and guardbanding, Vector Network Analyzer (VNA) time domain and transmission/reflection analysis, spectrum analyzer capabilities, GPS receivers, built-in power meters, pulse generators, and noise figure measurements. Additionally, the 50 GHz SSE units feature a dedicated FoxTrot Measurement Kit. The solicitation also details required Keysight accessories for both SSE and Lab environments. These accessories comprise economy mechanical calibration kits, calibration kits ranging up to 26.5 GHz and 50 GHz, hard transit cases, bias tee power cables, torque wrenches, coaxial adapters, 346-series noise sources with pre-delivery calibration, and a preamplifier. Quantities of all analyzers and accessory packages are explicitly defined to support the technical requirements of the procurement.
