UNSPSC 43222640: Wireless access point

A device enabling two-way service of wireless data by connecting wired and wireless networks, which helps a user use high-speed internet and intranet services.

UNSPSC 43222640 Wireless access point (Commodity) encompasses the procurement of wireless networking hardware by state and local governments, typically as components within larger audio-visual, communications, or facility infrastructure upgrades rather than as standalone equipment. Recent state and local activity reflects wireless access points bundled into comprehensive system installations—particularly in correctional facilities, municipal meeting spaces, and county administrative buildings where secure, reliable network connectivity supports communications infrastructure, inmate services platforms, or integrated A/V systems. The issuing bodies include municipal governments, county sheriffs' offices, state corrections departments, and county administrative agencies. These purchases often occur as part of emergency procurements, sole-source contract extensions, or capital facility modernization initiatives where wireless access points serve as enabling technology rather than primary procurement drivers.

Recent opportunities span Florida, Oregon, and Illinois. The City of Holly Hill, Florida posted RFP 26PW01 on October 19, 2026, soliciting an audio and video system upgrade for its Commission Chambers that includes wireless access points among nine wireless microphone systems, ceiling speakers, cameras, and Dante-based audio infrastructure, with sealed proposals due February 11, 2026, and a non-mandatory pre-proposal conference on January 22, 2026. Marion County, Oregon's Sheriff's Office issued two contract-specific special procurement notices (SC2510200017544, posted July 20, 2026, and SC2510200017664, posted August 3, 2026) for interim communication services and equipment at the Marion County Jail through ICSolutions Advanced Technologies, reflecting urgent operational demands in correctional settings where communications infrastructure, including wireless access points, supports inmate services. The State of Illinois Department of Corrections finalized emergency procurement costs for electronic communication services for incarcerated individuals (26426DOCCENTOB53139, posted July 15, 2026), due July 30, 2026, signaling wireless and networking infrastructure priorities within state corrections facilities.
