Actelis Networks, Inc., a market player in cyber-hardened, rapid deployment networking solutions for Internet of Things (IoT) and broadband applications, has announced that it has received a follow-on order from the City of Eugene, Oregon to expand its traffic management system with additional networking equipment.
This order builds upon Eugene’s previous deployment of Actelis’ hybrid fibre-copper networking solutions, which was initially announced in February 2023. The City of Eugene, Oregon’s second largest city and home to the University of Oregon, is continuing to enhance its traffic infrastructure as part of its Transportation Management Plan, which aims to triple the current rate of transit by foot, bicycles and public transport by the year 2035.
“We’re pleased to continue to add value to the intelligent transportation in the City of Eugene, through our long-time partner Western Systems, as the city continues to modernise their traffic management capabilities,” said Tuvia Barlev, the chairman and CEO of Actelis. “This follow-on order demonstrates the value our technology brings to municipalities striving to create safer, more efficient transportation systems while maximising their infrastructure investments.”
Eugene’s traffic management modernisation involves integrating Actelis’ hybrid fibre-copper solutions with traffic controllers to manage traffic flow through various IoT devices, including cameras and radar detection sensors. Actelis’ technology enables and extends connectivity to these devices while securely supplying the city’s operations centre with live data.
The new equipment is being delivered through Actelis’ long-standing partner Western Systems, which works with city, state and county agencies across the western United States to implement state-of-the-art traffic solutions. Actelis Networks, together with Western Systems, have been instrumental in helping Eugene, as well as many other cities, implement the devices necessary to efficiently control intersections, utilising Actelis’s solutions to deliver the necessary connectivity.
“This expanded deployment in Eugene highlights the growing adoption of our technology by forward-thinking municipalities,” added Barlev. “Our ability to provide immediate fibre-grade connectivity over existing infrastructure, combined with a clear path to full fibre implementation, offers cities a practical and cost-effective approach to traffic modernisation.”
