Systems For Traffic Beacons and Signs

Carmanah® 

Introducing the MX Series of Connected Beacons

Out of the box and into the cloud, immediately

With MX, connectivity isn’t an add-on. We’ve embedded it into the hardware so that it automatically connects and reports to the cloud (and a free local app) the moment it receives power.
