UNSPSC 52161556: Video distributer

Equipment that is designed to monitor the transmitted image from a camera to the multiple monitors as the same image. This is the equipment to monitor the video signal in several places for appropriate distribution and amplification to meet the monitor quantity.

UNSPSC 52161556 Video distributer (Commodity) covers the procurement of video display and distribution equipment by state and local governments, encompassing classroom projectors, interactive flat panels, LED video walls, wireless audio-visual systems, and integrated AV infrastructure for educational, administrative, and event-support purposes. School districts dominate this category, with Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas), Cobb County Schools (Georgia), Jones County Schools (Georgia), and Hillsborough County Schools (Florida) posting multiple recent solicitations; municipal governments and universities also actively procure under this code for council chambers, courtrooms, and performing arts facilities. The recent activity spans classroom technology upgrades, council chamber and courtroom AV systems, event production support, and district-wide AV equipment standardization, with solicitations mixing indefinite-quantity contracts, competitive sealed proposals, and cooperative purchasing quotes.

Recent opportunities cluster in Texas, Georgia, Michigan, and Florida. Northside Independent School District issued RFP2026072 (Aug 6, 2026 deadline) for classroom projectors, AV equipment procurement, installation, removal, and repair services under a five-year indefinite-quantity contract consolidating two expired vehicle; the City of Arlington, Texas requested LED video walls for Council Chambers and Council Briefing Room (RFP 260265, Aug 20 deadline); the City of Santa Monica issued RFP 2026RFP00034 (Aug 3 deadline) for citywide AV systems integration, maintenance, and support requiring California contractor licensing and prevailing wage compliance; and the Railroad Commission of Texas sought live audiovisual broadcasting services (IFB #455-26-1030, Jul 15 deadline) for approximately 20 open meetings, five hearings, and four town halls annually. Jones County School System (Georgia) solicited ViewSonic interactive flat panels with installation and removal (PE55267NONST2026000000041, May 18 deadline); Cobb County Schools released two parallel solicitations for audiovisual equipment and supplies on nearly identical terms (B26103 and PE63310NONST2026000000190, May 13 deadline), with estimated annual spending of $350,000 and multiple-award structure. The code shows consistent, high-volume activity signaling sustained demand for classroom technology refresh cycles, facility upgrades in response to infrastructure aging, and multi-year fleet standardization across large districts.
