The high-speed rite® Redundant Roadside Communications System has proven itself in the field and with extensive testing in the lab.
Based on the latest industrial automation technology, the rite® Redundant Roadside Communications System provides fully redundant, real-time communications between lane controllers and lane equipment.
The module performed exceptionally well and exceeded all expectations during temperature, vibration, and shock testing. It has now been in production since 2017 in Chicago on the highway network of Illinois Tollway.
The RRC Module can be configured as needed for different toll zones and is easily expandable to add more components. This new system eliminates obsolescence and end-of-life concerns present in other solutions. It supports a failover system that is software controlled with diagnostics to enable remote troubleshooting during adverse weather conditions.
