The 7318 Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) is deploying 8062 Intuicom’s BroadbandPro enterprise management software state-wide in an effort to unify and centralise the management of their municipality based traffic servers and 189 Siemens’ TACTICS central traffic management software.

The patented software includes drag-and-drop network configuration, real-time bi-directional network link data and a performance dashboard that intuitively communicates network performance parameters including ping latency, signal-to-noise ratio and Tx/Rx CCQ. It also has the ability to notify a technician, by text or email, that there is a failure in the field, improving response times.
