No Substitute Products:
Bidders must provide products that are of the same description,
brand name, model and/or part number as detailed in the item
description of the bid solicitation. Bidders are advised that
substitute products will not be considered for the following
reasons:
DRDC-Valcartier cannot accept an equivalent product because the
chemical composition of this optical fibre is important. An
optical fibre mainly made of Indium fluoride can reach a good
transmission between the visible up to 5 microns in the infrared
for a long optical fibre, which is not possible with others
kinds of infrared optical fibres made of fluoride glasses.
Moreover, this kind of optical fibre mainly made of Indium
fluoride has an optical damage threshold higher than others
kinds of infrared optical fibers which are not made of fluoride
glasses.
