Communication Networks (30 ComNet) has expanded its ComWorx VL line by introducing a cost-effective fibre-optic, eight-port Ethernet switch for commercial security applications. The CWGE2FE8MSPoE is the company's cost-effective managed Ethernet switch that provides a high port density in a compact

package and provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) to peripheral devices, such as IP cameras, video encoders and access control equipment, and is designed for use in benign environments. The device makes available eight 10/100TX ports and two 1,000Mbps combination ports that utilise easily interchangeable ComNet small form factor pluggable devices as optical interfaces. All eight ports support the IEE802.3af PoE standard. According to the company, this cost-effective solution is designed to operate in environments typical for commercial security. All eight ports support IEEE 802.3af-based PoE. Two ports are gigabit-configurable for copper, or multimode or single-mode optical fibre, selected by optional ComNet SFP modules.

    Two important safety innovations will be among a range of products and systems on the Iteris stand at Intertraffic Amsterdam. The company developed the first video-based bicycle detection system, SmartCycle, that it claims provides the unique capability of distinguishing bicycles from other vehicles on the road. Through the use of an Iteris enhanced algorithm, SmartCycle has the capability of making streets safer by extending green times for cyclists when the system knows they are present.

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-based positioning is unique among available positioning technology due to its universal coverage and low equipment cost. By measuring the distances between an unknown position (such as a vehicle), and at least three known positions (GPS satellites), the unknown position can be calculated in three dimensions (latitude, longitude, and

    Marseille’s city authority has added the monitoring of a second tunnel to the existing network with a new approach towards video management. Measuring 1.5km in length, the double-deck Prado Sud tunnel extends Marseille’s existing 2.5km Prado Carénage tunnel towards the southern part of the city. While it was logical to use a common control room and to use the latest detection and monitoring systems in the new tunnel, it was deemed too disruptive and costly to completely upgrade the existing tunnel.
