COMMPAK IP
The COMMPAK IP gives traffic control and maintenance personnel an easy, affordable wireless system to extend IP based and serial networks beyond existing infrastructure.

Acting as a wireless bridge, the COMMPAK IP provides Ethernet connectivity for multiple IP based traffic management devices. This is the perfect solution for the following applications:
- Extending an Ethernet system to more intersections
- Bringing back multiple data streams from traffic controllers, video cameras, and traffic detectors over a reliable long range wireless data link
- Serial controller interconnect and high-compression video over the same link
With a powerful 1W FHSS radio operating on license-free 900 MHz frequency, this unit is optimized to mitigate line-of-sight obstacles and act as a Master access point, a Remote or as a Repeater with two serial ports and one Ethernet port operating simultaneously.
Key Features
- Bandwidth capacity of 1.2 Mbps to support multiple communications in one traffic cabinet simultaneously
- Sustained data throughput of 230.4 Kbps on each serial port
- Easy migration from Serial to Ethernet systems
- Roaming access to company IP network
- QoS feature optimizes radio link and maximizes available 1.2 Mbps
- Includes ControlPAK software!
