Moxa plays it big

The desire to retrieve images from more and more locations means that IP video networks’ geographic coverage is growing all the time. In parallel, those same networks are becoming more densely populated with cameras. Although the individual cameras may only take 3Mb/s of bandwidth at average resolutions and frame rates, their cumulative effect is pushing jurisdictions towards the use of Gigabit Ethernet.

The desire to retrieve images from more and more locations means that IP video networks’ geographic coverage is growing all the time. In parallel, those same networks are becoming more densely populated with cameras. Although the individual cameras may only take 3Mb/s of bandwidth at average resolutions and frame rates, their cumulative effect is pushing jurisdictions towards the use of Gigabit Ethernet.

In fact, DOTs with larger (250-300) networks of cameras have already made the leap to 10Gb backbone networks and 97 Moxa’s new ICS-7828 and ICS-7852 industrial core switches address this need for larger networks without the need to mix vendors.

“The new switches allow the owners and users of larger networks to connect with the edges of their networks without the need to mix vendors,” says Jim Toepper, Moxa’s Product Manager for Industrial Ethernet Infrastructure.

    Panasonic is showcasing the evolution of vehicle On-Board Units (OBU) which combine electronic toll collection with provision of real-time travel information to drivers. The first generation of DSRC-based OBUs launched to market in Japan back in 2001, where around 40 million are now in use. The technology is especially relevant in Panasonic’s home country, as all motorways are private and congestion is a common problem. Value-added services such as local parking information can also be accessed.

    Scottish firm Findlay Irvine has developed a sophisticated new microgrip testing system. This is a walk-behind surface friction measurement unit that shares many operating capabilities with the firm’s proven towed unit. Business development manager Campbell Waddell explained: “It works on the same principle as the towed machine. We developed it as we kept getting asked to use the trailer based unit for jobs it wasn’t suited to, like pedestrian areas and cycleways.”
