UNSPSC 26121623: Radio frequency RF cable

UNSPSC 26121623 Radio frequency RF cable is a Commodity code capturing specialized RF transmission components state and local governments procure as part of wireless infrastructure, communications network, and signal systems work. Recent state and local opportunities show this code tagged primarily to fiber-optic and broadband network deployments where RF cable appears as a sub-component of larger telecommunications or traffic control infrastructure projects, rather than as a standalone product procurement. The City of Brownsville's middle-mile fiber expansion (Rings 7–9), the City of Brownsville's 5G infrastructure deployment across eighty-two locations, and Broward County's Pine Island Road Adaptive Traffic Control and Fiber Optics Systems project all involve RF cabling as part of integrated wireless, signal, or optical transport systems. Issuing bodies span city departments (transportation, IT, utilities), counties, and transit authorities; Brownsville, Broward County, and Wichita appear as repeat buyers in recent activity. The code sees moderate geographic spread, with recent opportunities concentrated in Texas (Brownsville, Austin, Dallas), Florida (Broward, Hillsborough, Tampa), and scattered activity across Kansas, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Georgia.

Representative recent opportunities illustrate the mix: the City of Brownsville issued RFQ 29526ITRFQ on July 15, 2026 (due August 18, 2026) for turnkey engineering, procurement, and construction of approximately 130 route miles of middle-mile fiber optic network expansion funded through the Texas Broadband Development Office, a design-build EPC delivery approach that includes procurement and installation of telecommunications infrastructure; and Broward County issued ITB TRN2131279C1 on February 6, 2026 (due March 9, 2026) for the Pine Island Road Adaptive Traffic Control and Fiber Optics Systems project, requiring fiber optic cabling, video detection systems, and traffic controller assemblies across nine signalized intersections in Davie and Plantation, Florida, with a 30 percent County Business Enterprise participation goal and prevailing wage compliance. Most recent opportunities tag RF cable incidentally within larger fiber, broadband, or wireless network scopes rather than as primary line items, suggesting limited standalone RF cable procurement activity at the state and local level; opportunities are driven primarily by broadband infrastructure grant programs (Texas Broadband Development Office, Federal Transit Administration funding) and municipal capital improvement initiatives.
