IDTIDT iMeshTM

multipoint to multipoint wireless networks

As BT withdraw the legacy leased circuits that have traditionally been used for communications

to traffic signals, UTC operators are increasingly replacing them with wireless networks using

iMesh™.

iMesh™ uses only open standards - both for client access

and backhaul. Not only does this assist integration with other

systems but also eliminates the risks associated with deploying

proprietary solutions.

Not only does iMesh™ offer substantial revenue savings over legacy BT circuits, it also

provides the opportunity to integrate other functions such as CCTV, remote wireless vehicle

detection and other UTMC-compliant systems such as parking guidance signs and counters.

One iMesh™ router is required at each node in a network (for

example, in a controller cabinet or up a signal pole). Backhaul

links (using fibre, ADSL or IDT’s iCell router) provide the

connections from the on-street network to the UTC instation.

iMesh™ has an operating range of around 500m and supports multiple hops. As

iMesh™ is simultaneously both an access point and a network client it can be

used as a repeater.
