UNSPSC 45111807: Interfaces

UNSPSC 45111807 Interfaces, a Commodity code, covers network infrastructure hardware and installation services—particularly Category 6 and higher cabling systems, network connectors, and interface components for data and voice transmission across state and local facilities. State and local governments purchase under this code primarily to upgrade or maintain backbone cabling plants, support moves and adds within existing installations, and deploy new network infrastructure at campuses, traffic-management facilities, and administrative buildings. Recent solicitations show Bergen Community College and Bergen County, New Jersey executing on-call network cabling services; Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority procuring Antaira modules and media converters; and smaller jurisdictions sourcing network equipment through cooperative purchasing vehicles. Issuing bodies span county public works departments, community colleges, transit authorities, and county government departments, with cooperative purchasing vehicles (such as Region 7 in Texas) aggregating demand across multiple member agencies to drive volume discounts.

Recent activity concentrates in the Northeast and South. Bergen Community College's two-year on-call network cabling contract (RFP P2426, proposals due November 4, 2026) covering moves, adds, removes, changes, and repairs to Category 6 cable plant across three New Jersey campuses—Paramus, Lyndhurst, and Hackensack—exemplifies the scope: installation of General Cable GenSpeed 6000 or equivalent unshielded twisted pair, Panduit RJ45 jacks, and faceplates to EIA/TIA standards, with all permits and municipal fees borne by the vendor. Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority's purchase order for Antaira modules and media converters (due May 26, 2026) represents smaller-scale hardware procurement. Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative's network systems and supplies catalog discount bid (NET2628, proposals due July 28, 2026) is structured as a recurring cooperative vehicle with estimated expenditures of $12.011 million over two years and 31 previous awards, indicating sustained market participation through aggregated procurement frameworks. Geographic spread includes New Jersey, Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with cooperative purchasing models extending reach across multi-state member bases.
