Communication is key in developing an ITS Integrated Transit System by building a network to include the sharing of existing metropolitan signal interconnections to monitor the intensity and mass of high speed traffic. This traffic analysis is routed via CCTV cameras to the network sharing the video output and control data. The transit priority and general objective is to use existing surveillance network systems to help with on-line traffic direction and safe transportation.

Opticomm provides a variety of products to support all types of traffic transportation systems that require analysis and distribution of Video/Audio/Data to improve local transportation and secure roads and traffic signals. Opticomm's System Engineers have been able to produce specific fiber optic product lines in Sync/Async Data protocol to support DOT in various cities throughout the country and internationally. More and more transit cities combine CCTV and traffic networks using optical transmit/receive and control video/data/audio for the freeway system. Many projects are being put in place to provide fiber to connect the majority of transit port within each local infrastructure to avoid congestion on freeways and arterial incidents affecting traffic flow. Some of the sites on which Opticomm's products already serve this purpose include bridges, tunnels, railroads, subways, mass transit systems and metros all over the world.

Example: Opticomm FMV-595 is capable of transmitting Video/Data/Audio signals from a camera site to a remote site in full duplex operation (4-8-16 Video/Audio/data channel multiplexing systems).

Traffic applications trough fiber are growing rapidly, replacing the more conventional 'copper' method traditionally serving the security network transportation industry.

The following are only a few needs and applications to which our Traffic Transportation products can provide easy answers and solutions:

	Traffic Study Analysis Systems (large communities)
	Signals Distribution for local cities/metropolitan areas
	Distance Learning among campus classrooms and auditoriums
	Audio/Data Video Matrix Switching Networks
	Multidrop Graphic Workstations and Network Surveillance Systems
	Reduction of traffic congestion on freeways and arterials
