DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Fort Worth, Texas is seeking a vendor to provide fiber optic pigtail and patch cable services. The project includes supplying factory-terminated fiber optic patch assemblies, such as 12-fiber stepped patch assemblies suitable for compact traffic control cabinets, utilizing single-mode OS2 (9/125 μm) fiber with network-side pigtails for splicing into existing fiber infrastructure. All assemblies must feature loose-tube cables rated for indoor/outdoor use, with a flame-retardant or equivalent jacket appropriate for traffic cabinet installations.
Additionally, wide-body modular patch assemblies supporting a minimum of 24 fibers, with LC duplex connectors for the equipment side, are required for higher-density applications. All fibers must be factory-terminated, tested, and labeled, eliminating the need for field termination or polishing. Equipment should operate in temperature ranges from –40°C to +70°C and be suitable for long-term installation within roadside Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) environments. The contract period will be for one year. All questions must be submitted by June 29, 2026.
