UNSPSC 26121831: Multi core 600 volt class f automotive cable

A multi core 600 volt automotive cable that operates within the minus 40degree to plus 200 degree centigrade range.

UNSPSC 26121831 Multi core 600 volt class F automotive cable is a Commodity code that captures structured cabling and installation services for government facilities, though recent state and local solicitations show the code encompasses a broader scope than its automotive-specific name suggests. The County of San Mateo's RFP for structured cabling and installation services (RFPISD20261906) illustrates the actual work being procured: comprehensive cabling solutions across county departments covering copper (UTP Cat 6a), multi-strand fiber (OM3 & OM4), and other cable types, with per-foot pricing for labor and materials on an as-needed basis. Issuing bodies under this code include county-level information technology and facilities departments managing infrastructure across multiple buildings and departments. Work typically requires three or more years of relevant experience, successful government implementations in the prior five years, and compliance with TIA/EIA telecommunications standards.

The County of San Mateo's RFP represents the primary recent activity under this code and establishes a contract value range of $300,000 to $1,000,000 with an initial 36-month term and two potential 12-month renewals. The solicitation opened July 16, 2026, with a mandatory pre-proposal meeting scheduled for November 17, 2025, questions due November 24, 2025, and proposals due December 8, 2025. San Mateo County applies a local business preference ordinance offering additional evaluation points for local businesses, nonprofits, and small or micro businesses. The two-phase evaluation process allocates 110 total points across organizational capacity and experience (30 points), method and approach (40 points), and price (30 points). Contractors must register with SAM.gov, carry required insurance, and accommodate departmental schedules while working in diverse settings including public thoroughfares.
