Communication Networks (30 ComNet) has expanded its ValueLine by introducing a cost-effective 24-port modular Gigabit Ethernet switch for commercial security applications. The CWGE24MODMS is the company's first modular managed Ethernet switch that provides a high port count with great flexibility in communications media type and connector choice. The all-new device is essentially a user-configurable chassis that allows for three eight-port modules to be accommodated. The modules are available as either eight electrical ports, eight fixed SC optic ports, eight user-selectable SFP ports, or a combination of electrical and SFP optical ports. All 24 ports support Gigabit Ethernet transmission.

According to Andrew Acquarulo, Jr, ComNet president and COO, "There was a definite need in the market for a feature-rich, user-configurable, high-density managed Ethernet switch for use in areas where there were multiple network devices and network traffic needed management."

    The effect of moving objects on the electromagnetic landscape set up by cellular telephony networks can be detected and interpreted to give real-time traffic data across large geographical areas at low cost. Here, we revisit the Celldar concept. Global economic downturn has pushed public-sector agencies, transport administrations among them, to push even harder for cost efficiencies. Unfortunately, when it comes to transport safety and efficiency the public sector often has to work up to a cost rather than

    Guillaume Ponsar, tunnel safety engineer with Egis Road Operation, writes about the advantages to be gained from the use of tunnel simulators. Major tunnel disasters over the last decade and more have shown how swiftly and badly a simple crash or fire may evolve should the wrong actions be taken by control room operators or traffic managers. Global safety issues and the reactions of operations staff have now become the principal concerns for Operations and Maintenance (O&M) service providers. As a result, n

    Antaira Technologies, an industrial device networking and communication solutions specialist, says its new unmanaged switch series is designed for industrial applications subject to high vibration and shock. The LNP-0800G-M12-67-24 series features a PSE management system which helps provide protection from PoE system or PD overloads. According to Antaira, the IP67 waterproof switch uses bypass technology to help keep data communication flowing if there is a power failure even if the switch is offline. The

    Kapsch’s Bernd Eberstaller explains how the company’s new Tolling Services will help expand the number and capabilities of EETS services providers. By 2017, the European Electronic Tolling Service (EETS) should have been in operation for several years but it still remains some way away and with several significant hurdles still to be addressed. The concept behind EETS is simple enough: road users should be able to drive across Europe using only a single transponder to pay for all tolls, with the account-han
