UNSPSC 43222626: Cable modems

A cable modem is a device that enables you to hook up your PC to a local cable TV line and receive data at about 1.5 Mbps

UNSPSC 43222626 Cable modems (Commodity) does not map to the work state and local governments are actually soliciting under this code. The recent opportunities tagged with this UNSPSC are dominated by wide-area networking, data center infrastructure, structured cabling systems, SCADA equipment, and classroom technology services — none of which center on cable modems as a discrete product line. The code shows no recent activity aligned with its nominal scope of cable modem procurement. State and local issuing bodies posting opportunities in this period have tagged them with 43222626, but the solicitations themselves address bundled services, system integration, and multi-component infrastructure rather than the purchase or provisioning of cable modems as standalone hardware.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span state agencies (Texas Department of Information Resources), counties (Orange County, California), cities (City of Flowery Branch, Georgia; Jacksonville Transportation Authority), school districts (Gwinnett County Public Schools, Texas Southmost College, Valencia College District, Katy Independent School District), and regional transit authorities (North Florida Transportation Planning Organization). Geographic spread includes Texas, Georgia, California, and Florida. Representative recent activity includes the Texas Department of Information Resources requesting indefinite-quantity, multiple-award contracts for cellular, wireless, pager, and satellite voice and data services (TEX-AN-WPS, due July 23, 2026, IFB); the City of Flowery Branch, Georgia soliciting SCADA system equipment upgrade and maintenance for water system infrastructure (due June 30, 2026, RFP); Orange County Sheriff-Coroner Department establishing a pre-qualified bidders list for job order contracting structured cabling and installation services (due April 13, 2026, pre-qualification); Texas Southmost College requesting campus data cabling services with Panduit certification requirements (due April 1, 2026, RFP); and Valencia College District seeking comprehensive classroom and conference room technology services across nine campuses (due April 30, 2026, RFP). The mismatch between the code name and actual procurement scope signals that this UNSPSC category is either deprecated in state and local taxonomy, incorrectly tagged by issuing bodies, or no longer represents current buying patterns in this sector.
