Yes, i think wireless may be ok for links to loops etc over short distances but the performance i'm really interested in is on a UTC system where a very regular one second transmission from each OTU is required. -----Original Message----- From: Edward Ashworth [mailto:Edward.Ashworth@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, July 07, 2008 11:34 AM To: tcug@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [TCUG] Re: Use of wireless radio comms, IP addressable UTC?? Hi Doug, I've not used wireless comms for UTC personally but I did have a very interesting meeting with Mike Collins from Traffic Signal Design & Consultancy a couple of weeks ago - he demonstrated their wireless communications system which appears to be extremely reliable and has a much larger range than Smartlink. He was very proud of the fact that TfL are using his product at a couple of bridge sites where you can't lay ducting/cables for comms. Might be worth speaking to him about it: Mike Collins Traffic Systems Design & Consultancy Tel/Fax: 01423 734164 Mob 07977 432649 Edward -----Original Message----- From: tcug-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tcug-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Douglas Cook Sent: 07 July 2008 11:23 To: 'tcug@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' Subject: [TCUG] Use of wireless radio comms, IP addressable UTC?? Seeing as we have had a request for performance reports on fibre optic comms for IP addressable UTC, can I put a request in for performance reports on wireless UTC comms? Does anyone have experience of wireless UTC comms? What supplier/s have you used? What sort of level of transmission errors do you get? Did the installation go smoothly? Would you use wireless comms again? Thanks, Doug Cook.
