Product Service Code (PSC) 5811 encompasses Other Cryptologic Equipment and Components, which are specialized electronic devices designed for secure communications, encryption, and information protection. These systems include cryptographic hardware, secure phones, encryption platforms, and related technologies critical to national security and defense communications. The equipment is typically used by military, intelligence, and government agencies to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of sensitive information transmission.

Federal Contract Awards under PSC 5811 reveal a diverse range of cryptologic equipment procurement, with contract values ranging from approximately $7,000 to over $34 million. Key contractors include Raytheon Company, General Dynamics Mission Systems, Viasat Inc., and other specialized defense technology providers. Most awards are firm fixed-price contracts issued by defense agencies such as the Air Force Space and Missile Systems Center, Naval Sea Systems Command, and Department of Energy. The contracts frequently support Foreign Military Sales programs and involve the production, repair, and upgrade of communication security (COMSEC) and controlled cryptographic item (CCI) equipment. Awards are predominantly not set aside for small businesses, indicating the specialized nature of the technologies.

Recent Federal Contract Opportunities for PSC 5811 focus on sole-source procurements of specialized encryption devices and communication security equipment. The Space Development Agency intends to acquire nine KG-142 1x10G and four KG-142 2x10G crypto units from Viasat, Inc. for approximately $975,000. The Department of Energy has posted notices to purchase TACLANE-FLEX Encryptors and Sectera vIPer Universal Secure Phones from General Dynamics Mission Systems, Inc. The Defense Logistics Agency has also posted a small business set-aside solicitation for a specialized Coaxial Detector from Mirion Technologies. These opportunities consistently emphasize the critical national security applications of these cryptologic technologies and the need for highly specialized, secure communication equipment.
