About this opportunity
The City of Ocala is posting a sole-source Request for Information (RFI# SSP-245 WRS/261086) for GE Radio equipment, with responses due September 10, 2026. The City intends to procure GE MDS Orbit ECR (Edge-Connect Router) LN4 radio systems, which it believes to be unique or proprietary and available from one source only. Vendors claiming capability to supply equal, equivalent, or identical products must submit documentation to Senior Buyer Eileen Marquez at emarquez@ocalafl.gov; the sole-source posting will remain open for a minimum of 15 business days to allow competitive challenges.
The specified equipment is an industrial wireless router designed for SCADA and critical infrastructure communications, operating in the 450–520 MHz licensed narrowband frequency band. Key technical requirements include 5-watt carrier power output, 120 Kbps maximum data rate, operational range exceeding 30 miles per hop, AES-128 and AES-256 encryption capabilities, one 10/100 Mbps Ethernet RJ-45 port, one RS-232/RS-485 serial port, one Mini-USB 2.0 management port, and one TNC female antenna connector. The equipment must operate across 10–60 VDC input voltage and −40°C to +70°C temperature range, with UL, CSA, FCC, and IC compliance. The device supports point-to-multipoint and peer-to-peer configurations and includes DIN-rail or flat-surface mounting options.
The RFI does not identify a contract value, term, or incumbent. No pre-bid meeting, questions deadline, or final proposal due date is specified in the materials provided; September 10 is the RFI response deadline for vendors claiming product equivalency. No set-asides or preferences are noted.
