U10-T Onboard Unit

Among a range of products being highlighted by Spain-headquartered 55 GMV, a global technology company with a high level of specialisation in ITS for transport and mobility, will be the U10-T Onboard Unit, a reliable OBU designed according to European Standards to provide all on-board functionalities required for GNSS-based Electronic Fee Collection.

U10-T is designed to support both thin and thick architectures and is compatible with EETS. The unit integrates a DSRC module (5.8 GHz) that can be used for enforcement and also as a DSRC tag for tolling, compatible with different European standards.

The OBU unit implements GMV-patented algorithms for ensuring very precise computation charges. It is plug-and-play and easy to install; just by attaching the OBU to the windshield and plugging it into the lighter outlet. It can be installed on a truck/bus but also on private vehicles. The man-machine interface includes a display for visualizing easily understandable information on the OBU functioning and status and simple data input such as the number of axles of a truck.
