Vandenberg Space Force Base (VSFB) current infrastructure is highly dependent on end-of-life and end-of-support Synchronous Optical Network (SONET).

A Ciena-based Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) Optical Transport Network (OTN) architecture is now operational and ready for the migration of circuits from SONET. The migration priorities, plan, and template configurations have been developed and tested. It is time to begin the transition of the 1879 circuits from SONET to DWDM. This performance work statement accomplishes the migration of up to 525 of those circuits.
