1201. 3(b) 1201. 3(b) subsystem operations and diagnostic test procedures. Coordinate with the Representative and ITS device vendor to verify if any work needs to be completed before scheduling the on- site standalone test. Submit test procedures, checklist, and summary sheets for the Representative's acceptance before performing tests. Provide Representative with a testing schedule indicating the date, time, and location of each test. Provide at least 5 working days ’ notice before all tests so the Representative can observe each test. At a minimum submit the following testing data:

3.a Telecommunication Utility Coordination . Coordinate with the Utility provider(s) and

Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Office of Administration- Information Technology ( OA/OIT) staff to set up new communication services at each proposed ITS site. Communications include Private IP (PIP) network and Frame Relay (MPLS). All communications are to be IP addressable and compli ant with all applicable NTCIP standards. Configuration will allow Department personnel to monitor the ITS sites simultaneously.

• Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Connections: Connections from the District facilities to the PIP network will be procured by OA/ OIT. The contractor must supply GPS coordinates and a 911 address for each location. Install, connect, and configure equipment in ITS enclosures or node cabinets if applicable, and the RTMC as indicated on the Intelligent Transportation System Plans. Install MPLS equipment according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Coordinate with OA/OIT Staff to determine IP addressing schemes. Follow OA/OIT policies concerning management and security policies . Depending upon project specific requirements Telecommunication Utility Coordination and testing may include:

• Cellular: Verizon Wireless Cellular activations will be done by OA/ OIT Telecommunications staff.

Coordinate with the Representative for installation of the existing SIM card and existing cellular provider to provide service to the proposed Cellular modem. Orient antenna to achieve the best signal possible. This may require multiple attempts. After connectivity has been established coordinate with the Representative, PennDOT’s Systems and Performance Unit in the Operations and Performance Section of the Bureau of Operations, District ITS staff, and OA/OIT for the integration of the ITS Communications subsystem into the existing ATMS and test accordingly.

3.b ITS Communications Device Testing . Test all telemetry equipment under normal operating
