UNSPSC 43221705 Radio access equipment (Commodity) covers antennas, radiofrequency components, and related hardware that state and local agencies integrate into public safety communications networks, border security systems, and emergency response infrastructure.

The issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Department of Public Safety, Texas Department of Information Resources, New Jersey Department of the Treasury), counties (Marion County Oregon, Santa Clara County), and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-jurisdictional public entities. The Texas Department of Information Resources procurement for cellular, wireless, pager, and satellite services under the TEX-AN contract framework shows demand for wireless infrastructure services and equipment across all state agencies on an indefinite-quantity, multiple-award basis.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Oregon, New Jersey, and California, with multi-state reach through cooperative purchasing. Recent opportunities include the Texas Department of Public Safety's RFI for omnidirectional long-range, high-gain antennas (due November 3, 2026) to support cell-enabled cameras along the Texas/Mexico border with 4G LTE, 5G, and FirstNet Band 14 compatibility; Marion County, Oregon's RFP for tower climbing and antenna installation services across fifteen tower sites (due September 9, 2026) covering transmitter, microwave dish, and feedline installation at fully burdened daily crew rates; Santa Clara County's RFQ for Motorola radios and accessories for the Sheriff's Office (due June 17, 2026); and the New Jersey Department of the Treasury's bid solicitation on behalf of the New Jersey Public Broadcasting Authority for transmission facility management covering thirteen television transmission facilities across three regions (due September 3, 2026), subject to prevailing wage and New Jersey Small Business Enterprise subcontracting requirements. Sourcewell's RFP for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026) establishes a multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing contract available to thousands of governmental and public entities across the United States and Canada.
